Master Wind Load Calculations (the quickest method)

[@ronniejohnson1094]

Excellent description!! Thanks

[@waynewang1423]

very informative and clear video, keep it up man!

[@QuickQuestionEngineering]

Thanks! I hope to post the next videos on this series soon

[@waynewang1423]

Great! I just feel like wind load are quite complex maybe I should say tedious. This envelope method I found is like most convenient method. I am probably going to use automation method in STAAD and compare with this simplified method. @@QuickQuestionEngineering

Thank you! Simple and safe method 👍👍

[@JulieFreund]

Great video. Do you have one for Components and Cladding? Breaking these topics is so helpful and engaging. Keep it up!

[@QuickQuestionEngineering]

@@JulieFreund Thank you so much for the encouragement. My next one will be on the All Heights MWFRS method and then I’ll get into C&C!

[@TrangNguyen-w8b]

thanks for this video! It 's really useful for me!

[@QuickQuestionEngineering]

Thank you!

Great video. Wind is so much more complex than seismic. Lucky most of my design is seismic governed

[@QuickQuestionEngineering]

Thanks! I personally think seismic is more complicated, especially due to all the extra detailing and requirements. I guess it also depends on what you do more at work

[@dcvo89]

@@QuickQuestionEngineering true. Way more requirements

So you use the Lambda factor to adjust the Exposure B p30 values for this building being in Exposure C and not 30ft tall?

[@alexgalan1]

Bravo!! for me, It was a perfect explanation. I hope you can show us the other methods or someone else can tell me where I can find them.

[@QuickQuestionEngineering]

I posted videos for three methods on this playlist. Only one left now which I’ll post soon. Thanks for watching!

Please do topics on connection for all members. How to calculate spacing simpson h2.5a, a34clip, nailing spacing,etc., i have confusion on designing this due to what load to be consider and procedure for calculation.

[@QuickQuestionEngineering]

That’s a great idea! I’ll add this to the list for future videos. Thanks for watching and for the feedback!

I have the ASCE 7-22, and there is no section 28.5 and I can't find anything on the simplified design method. Can someone please educate me if ASCE no longer allows the simplified method if the state uses the ASCE 7-22? Also, the wind loads are considerably higher in the 7-22 ASCE Hazard Tool online than in the 7-16. Edit: I did some additional research and yes, 7-22 eliminated the simplified method in chapter 28.

[@QuickQuestionEngineering]

You are correct that 7-22 dropped the simplified methods! I noticed that recently and will be making a video about the updates in 7-22 including this one. Regarding your second comment, I don’t think the wind loads are considerably higher in 7-22. Maybe you’re looking at velocity pressure (qz, qh)? The directionality factor moved out of that equation but into the pressure equation, so you’ll be getting higher velocity pressures but then these will get reduced when you calculate the actual pressures with Kd, G, cp, and GCpi.

@@QuickQuestionEngineering e se puder (e quiser) fazer uma versão em português também será de grande ajuda heheh Mas adorei as aulas em inglês pq achei o ASCE bem mais confuso que a NBR e você ajudou muito. Obrigada!!

thanks a lot!
