The majority of these changes were editorial but some did include technical changes.

Thirty other changes related to wind loads were included in ASCE 7-10.

Reorganization of wind load provisions Wind speed maps Re-introduction of Exposure D in hurricane-prone regions Wind-borne debris region Simplified procedure for buildings ≤ 160 ft This paper presents a general background on the basis for these changes.

INTRODUCTION The major changes to the wind load provisions of ASCE 7 introduced in ASCE 7-10 are: A new simplified procedure for buildings up to 160 ft has been added based on the provisions for buildings of all heights. Technical changes include the introduction of new wind speed maps to be used with a 1.0 load factor for LRFD and a 0.6 load factor for ASD, the reintroduction of Exposure D for water surfaces in hurricane-prone regions, and revised wind-borne debris regions. The major editorial change is a complete reorganization to a multiple-chapter format as done previously for seismic loads with the objective being to make the provisions easier to follow. Eric Stafford & Associates, 2 ABSTRACT ASCE 7-10 “Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures” contains several changes regarding wind loads.

For component and cladding elements, the effective wind area (in Figs. EFFECTIVE WIND AREA, A: (ASCE/SEI 7-10, similar at 7-16) The area used to determine (GC p). The Standard describes the means for determining design loads including dead, live, soil, flood, tsunami, snow, rain, ice, earthquake, wind and fire, as well as how to assess load combinations. ASCE 7-16 provides up-to-date and coordinated loading standards for general structural design. Your purchase of ASCE 7-16 includes access to ASCE 7-10. Wind Loads Using ASCE 7Wind Loads Using ASCE 7-10 Windows and Doors 1 presented by T. ASCE 7 Hazard Tool will identify hurricane-prone regions and wind-borne debris regions, as defined in ASCE 7-16, Chapter 26 and ASCE 7-10.

Moreover, we will be using the Directional Procedure (Chapter 30 of ASCE 7-10) in solving the design wind pressures. Users would need to conduct manual calculation of this procedure in order to verify if the results are the same with those obtained from the software. Asce 7 10 Espanol Gratis Manual Calculation Of.
