The dimensions of an enclosed gabled building areshown in Figure P2.13a. The external pressures for thewind load perpendicular to the ridge of the building areshown in Figure P2.13b. Note that the wind pressure canact toward or away from the windward roof surface. Forthe particular building dimensions given, the Cp value forthe roof based on the ASCE standard can be determinedfrom Table P2.13, where plus and minus signs signifypressures acting toward and away from the surfaces, re-spectively. Where two values of Cp are listed, this indi-cates that the windward roof slope is subjected to either positive or negative pressures, and the roof structureshould be designed for both loading conditions. The ASCEstandard permits linear interpolation for the value of theinclined angle of roof θ. But interpolation should onlybe carried out between values of the same sign. Establishthe wind pressures on the building when positive pressureacts on the windward roof. Use the following data: ba-sic wind…
