door”?
• Why do people ask questions? (Not included)
20. TDS-155, Wind Load Guides

– Building Importance
– Opening Size
– Opening Protection
– Building Configuration
– Door Location
22. Wind Load Variables
• Building height above finished grade
• Design wind speed
• Exposure category
• Garage door horizontal location
• Product designation
• Use factor
• Building Type, with respect to openings
• Roof Pitch
• Door Area
23. DASMA “Wind Load Guides”
• Based on ASCE 7 and the IBC
• In process of referencing ASCE 7-02
(equivalent to ASCE 7-98)
• In process of reference the 2003 IBC
(equivalent to the 2000 IBC)
• Commercial and Residential Guides
• Guides based on Exposures B, C and D
24. Building Height Above Finished
Grade
• ASCE 7-98 Section 6.5.12.4.1
• IBC Section 1609.6 (“Simplified Wind
Load Method”)
• Buildings less than 60 feet in height (“Low-
Rise Buildings)
• Guides use building heights of 15’ and 25’
25. Design Wind Speed
• ASCE 7-98 Figure 6-1
• IBC Figure 1609
• Guides based on 90-150 MPH
• Three Second Gust values
26. Exposure Categories
• ASCE 7-98 Section 6.5.6.1
• IBC Section 1609.4
• Exposure B: Typical Residential
Subdivision; Wooded Areas
• Exposure C: Open Terrain; Hurricane-
Prone Shorelines
• Exposure D: Within 1/4 Mile of an Inland
Lake at least One Mile Across
27. Garage Door Horizontal Location
• ASCE 7-98 Figure 6-5A
• IBC Section 1609.6.3
• Smaller of 10% of least horiz. dim. (use
40’) or 40% of eave height (use >10’): 4 ft.
• Not less than the larger of 4% of the least
horiz. dim. (use 40’) or 3’; 3 ft.
• Guides use 4 ft.; 2 ft. of which extend onto
the garage door surface
28. Product Design Designation
• ASCE 7-98 Section 6.2
• IBC Section 1609.2
• Main Wind-Force Resisting System: An
assemblage of structural elements assigned to
provide support and stability for the overall
structure.
• Components and Cladding: Elements that do not
qualify as part of the MWFRS.
• Guides based on garage doors as Components
and Cladding
29. Importance Factor
• ASCE 7-98 Table 6-1
• IBC Table 1604.5
• Guides based on Category II factor
• Applies to non-essential structures, and
structures with no substantial hazard to
human life in the event of failure
30. Building Type
• ASCE 7-98 Section 6.2
• IBC Section 1609.2
• Partially Enclosed Building:
– Openings in a wall > Openings in the balance of the
building envelope by more than 10%

• Guides apply to Enclosed Buildings
31. What’s An Opening?
• ASCE 7-98 Section 6.2
• Not in the IBC
• Apertures or holes in the building envelope
• Which allow air to flow through the
building envelope
• And which are designed as “open” during
design winds
32. Roof Pitch

• IBC Figure 1609.6(2)
• 10% coefficient reduction if roof pitch is less than 10
degrees (“low-slope”)
• Guides: “Low-slope” roof systems are treated as
commercial structures
• IBC “Simplified” Table 1609.6.2.1(2) does not include
reduction option
• Guides include both residential and commercial structures
