For “flexible” buildings or structures, this program calculates the gust effect factor, ‘Gf’, per Section 26.9.4 of the Code based on the assumed formula for the fundamental period of vibration from Section 12.8.2.1 of the Code, where the exponent 'x' in the formula T = Ct*h^x is assumed to be 0.75.ĥ.
For “rigid” buildings or structures, this program uses the smaller value of either 0.85 or the calculated value from Section 26.9.3 of the Code for the gust effect factor, 'G'. Worksheets for "MWFRS (Any Ht.)", and "Open Structures" can handle “rigid” as well as “flexible” buildings and structures. In worksheets for "MWFRS (Any Ht.)", "Wall C&C", and "Roof C&C" the user may opt to utilize user designated steps in height, 'z', in determining the wind pressure distribution.Ĥ. Worksheets for "MWFRS (Any Ht.)", "Wall C&C", and "Roof C&C" are applicable for buildings with mean roof heights of up to 500 feet.ģ. Worksheet for "MWFRS (Low-Rise)" is applicable for low-rise buildings as defined in Section 26.2.Ģ. Wind Map Basic wind speed map (Figure 26.5-1 of ASCE 7-10 Code)ġ. Open Structures (no roof) Analysis of open structures without roofs Roof C&C Analysis of roof Components and Cladding Wall C&C Analysis of wall Components and Cladding MWFRS (Any Ht.) Main Wind-Force Resisting System for buildings of any height MWFRS (Low-Rise) Main Wind-Force Resisting System for low-rise buildings with h <= 60’ This program is a workbook consisting of nine (7) worksheets, described as follows: Program is based on Alex Tomanovich's "ASCE705W" program and modified by David Taylor and William Fultz. Specifically, wind pressure coefficients and related and required parameters are selected or calculated in order to compute the net design wind pressures. "ASCE710W" is a spreadsheet program written in MS-Excel for the purpose of wind loading analysis for buildings and structures per the ASCE 7-10 Code. "ASCE710W" - ASCE 7-10 CODE WIND ANALYSIS PROGRAM
