If the wind velocity pressure in the area is 3.7KPa, Gust Effect Factor, Gt=0.85 and external pressure coefficient of 0.29 (pressure) and 0.48 (suction). Calculate the total amount of wind load in KPa on the leeward side of the roof. Express your answer in 2 decimal places.arrow_forwardDetermine the UBC-97 design seismic forces for a nine story ductile moment resisting steel. frame office building located in the National Capital Region on very dense soil and soft rock. The building is located 5km from a fault capable of large magnitude earthquakes and that has a moderate slip rate (M>7, SR>2mm/yr). The story heights are all 3.96 m. The plan area is 30.48 m by 51.82 m. The total dead load is 4.788 kN/m2 at all levels. The moment frames consist of two four bay frames in the transverse direction and two seven bay frames in the longitudinal direction.arrow_forward15 m 0.4 m 55 m 60m 40 m a) Determine the ULS uniformly distributed load 'S' (in kPa), snow load, needed to design the lower roof. Remember to check both the basic snow and the rain load.
