76 Commentary on the Prescriptive Method for One and Two Family Dwellings - 2004<br />

Roof Dead Load = 15 psf<br />

Wall Dead Load = 7 psf<br />

Ground Snow Load = 25 psf<br />

Slab-on-Grade Foundation<br />

Framing Studs: 350S162-33<br />

Stud Spacing = 16” on center<br />

Calculate Wind Load<br />

Per ASCE 7 (ASCE, 1998):<br />

Directionality Factor (K d ) = 0.85 (Table 6-6)<br />

Importance Factor = 1.0 (Section 6.5.5)<br />

Topographic Factor (K zt )= 1.0 (Figure 6-2)<br />

Velocity Exposure (K z ) = 0.70 (Table 6-5)<br />

Velocity Pressure = q z = 0.00256 x K z x K zt x K d (V 2 x I) = 21.934 (Eq. 6.5.10)<br />

Pressure = p = q z [(GCpf) – (GCpi)] (Eq. 6.5.12.2.1)<br />
