Input Data:
Wind Speed, V = 90 mph (Wind Map, Figure 6-1)
Bldg. Classification = II (Table 1-1)
Exposure Category = C (Sect. 6.5.6) B
Ridge Height, hr = 53.33 ft. (hr >= he)
Eave Height, he = 20.00 ft. (he <= hr)
Building Width = 200.00 ft. (Normal to Building Ridge)
Building Length = 250.00 ft. (Parallel to Building Ridge) L
Roof Type = Gable (Gable or Monoslope)
Plan
Topo. Factor, Kzt = 1.00 (Sect. 6.5.7 & Figure 6-4)
Direct. Factor, Kd = 0.85 (Table 6-4)
Enclosed? (Y/N) Y (Sect. 6.2 & Figure 6-5)
Component Name = Girt (Girt, Siding, Wall, or Fastener) qo
Effective Area, Ae = 208 ft.^2 (Area Tributary to C&C) hr
h
he
Resulting Parameters and Coefficients: L
Elevation
Roof Angle, q = 18.43 deg.
Mean Roof Ht., h = 36.67 ft. (h = (hr+he)/2, for roof angle >10 deg.)
Wall External Pressure Coefficients, GCp:
GCp Zone 4 Pos. = 0.77 (Fig. 6-11A)
GCp Zone 5 Pos. = 0.77 (Fig. 6-11A)
GCp Zone 4 Neg. = -0.87 (Fig. 6-11A)
GCp Zone 5 Neg. = -0.93 (Fig. 6-11A)
Positive & Negative Internal Pressure Coefficients, GCpi (Figure 6-5):
+GCpi Coef. = 0.18 (positive internal pressure)
-GCpi Coef. = -0.18 (negative internal pressure)
If z <= 15 then: Kz = 2.01*(15/zg)^(2/a) , If z > 15 then: Kz = 2.01*(z/zg)^(2/a) (Table 6-3, Case 1a)
a= 9.50 (Table 6-2)
zg = 900 (Table 6-2)
Kh = 1.02 (Kh = Kz evaluated at z = h)
I= 1.00 (Table 6-1) (Importance factor)
Velocity Pressure: qz = 0.00256*Kz*Kzt*Kd*V^2*I (Sect. 6.5.10, Eq. 6-15)
qh = 18.06 psf qh = 0.00256*Kh*Kzt*Kd*V^2*I (qz evaluated at z = h)
Design Net External Wind Pressures (Sect. 6.5.12.4):
For h <= 60 ft.: p = qh*((GCp) - (+/-GCpi)) (psf)
For h > 60 ft.: p = q*(GCp) - qi*(+/-GCpi) (psf)
where: q = qz for windward walls, q = qh for leeward walls and side walls
qi = qh for all walls (conservatively assumed per Sect. 6.5.12.4.2)

Notes: 1. (+) and (-) signs signify wind pressures acting toward & away from respective surfaces.
2. Width of Zone 5 (end zones), 'a' = 14.67 ft.
3. Per Code Section 6.1.4.2, the minimum wind load for C&C shall not be less than 10 psf.
