The C&C wind load provisions adopted for ASCE 7-16 introduced several changes that increased the C&C wind pressures in some roof zones of flat, gable, and hip roofs. Roof zones were added, usually increasing the number of zones from 3 to 6. There were some zones where the effective wind areas (EWA) were reduced to less than 10 sq. ft , thus increasing the C&C pressures. These complications were removed in ASCE 7-22 thus usually reducing the wind pressures but more importantly making the provisions easier to use. These changes will be covered in this webinar.
