Asce 7 10 Chapter 30 Pdf Free Rating: 5,6/10 549votesPrepared by the Committee on Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures of the Codes and Standards Activities Division of the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE. Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures, ASCE/SEI 7-10, provides requirements for general structural design and includes means for determining dead, live, soil, flood, snow, rain, atmospheric ice, earthquake, and wind loads, as well as their combinations, which are suitable for inclusion in building codes and other documents. This Standard, a revision of ASCE/SEI 7-05, offers a complete update and reorganization of the wind load provisions, expanding them from one chapter into six. The Standard contains new ultimate event wind maps with corresponding reductions in load factors, so that the loads are not affected, and updates the seismic loads with new risk-targeted seismic maps. The snow, live, and atmospheric icing provisions are updated as well. In addition, the Standard includes a detailed Commentary with explanatory and supplementary information designed to assist building code committees and regulatory authorities.
The third printing of Standard ASCE/SEI 7-10 incorporates errata and includes Supplement 1. Post navigation.
Hello, I am new to the forum.I would like to ask for assistance in understanding how to apply Af in Equation 29.5-1. I am attempting to analyse an existing trussed tower.
It is an open tower comprised of pipe columns and angle bracing on all four faces. I feel comfortable calculating force coefficient Cf per Figure 29.5-3. I understand that Cf includes contributions of both front and back faces of the tower so that wind does not need be applied to both windward and leeward faces.My concern is calculating Af properly.

ASCE 7-10 states Af = projected area normal to the wind except where Cf is specified for the actual surface area. What does the ASCE 7 mean by the term 'except'? If I calculate Cf, what is the the proper way to determine Af to apply wind load at the top of each panel?
I found in a FAQ regarding ASCE 7-02 that the area Af used to calculate wind force per foot of tower height is the solid area of one face divided by the panel height. Does it make sence to calculate Af in that manner and multiply by the panel height to obtain a force to be applied at the top of each panel?Thank you in advance.
