Unit of measurement:

Building Code: National Building Code 2015 (Canada) Calculation method: Limit States Design (LSD)

Load input method: Wind loads calculated according to Article 4.1.7 and Figure 4.1.7.6.-B of the NBC 2015 Unit of measurement: International System

Wind loads calculated according to Article 4.1.7 and Figure 4.1.7.6.-B of the NBC 2015

External pressure formula:

p = I_w q C_e C_t C_g C_p

Internal pressure formula:

p_i = I_w q C_ei C_t C_gi C_pi

Reference velocity pressure, q (kPa):

Building importance category:

Reference height of the element, h (m):
