Determine the external wind pressure on the roof of the rigid-gabled frame of a building for an essential disaster operation center shown in Fig. P2.14. The building is located in Kansas City, Missouri, where the terrain is representative of exposure C and the basic wind speed for risk category IV buildings is 120 mph. Assume the wind direction is normal to the ridge, as shown in the figure. Use Kd 50.85 for main wind-force resisting systems, and Ke =1

The building, as seen in the Typical Braced Frames Showing Story Height document, is 122' 6" tall. Treat internal pressure (qi) as 0. What is the total (windward + leeward) design wind force acting on the hospital in the short direction (i.e the unit vector that is used to describe the short side of the rectangle) when the long side is the windward face? Use the ASCE 7-16 documenta to determine V, Ke, K2, Kzt, Ka, G, C, and I when doing your calculations. Table 27.2-1 in ASCE 7-16 will help guide you through the process. You may use a spread sheet to aid in your calculations as you will have many K, factors for different heights of the building.
