The Washington Post. Asce 7-16 pdf free. AutoCAD is easily the most known and respected name with regards to 2D and 3D CAD design. AutoCAD software is essentially a drafting tool that facilitates the process of designing and communicating the finish results with other people. Within this day and age most structures which are built derive from CAD sketches.

The webinar allows the audience to see this webinar straight from my office, without having to travel. I have attended many ASCE webinars and find that ASCE knows how to put together an effective webinar. - Anonymous Attendee
INSTRUCTOR:William L. Coulbourne, P.E., F.SEI, F.ASCE
Course Length: 1 hour
Purpose and Background
This three-part webinar series discusses how to use the wind load provisions of ASCE 7-16 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures. The series will cover the basics of wind engineering including the atmospheric and aerodynamic effects of wind on buildings. The changes recently adopted for use in ASCE 7-16 will be a prominent part of the material. The changes include revised wind speed maps, changes in external pressure coefficients for roof components and cladding and the addition of pressure coefficients to use for roof mounted solar arrays.
The series will cover all methods used to develop wind pressures on buildings - the directional procedure, the envelope procedure, and simplified methods where wind pressures are determined from tables of results based on exposure classification, height and building characteristics. Wind pressure determination for both the Main Wind Force Resisting System (MWFRS) and Components and Cladding (C&C) are included. Wind pressures are developed for several buildings including variations on the pressures caused by changing the exposure and height of the buildings.
This webinar is being offered early in the outreach process for ASCE 7-16 to give engineers a chance to get familiar with the new provisions long before their local community adopts a building code that requires the use of these new provisions. Engineers may want to practice the use of these new provisions to determine the real effects on designs and on client requirements. Other engineering tools such as computer software will not likely be available yet.
Primary Discussion Topics
- Wind speed maps
- Wind design equations
- Wind design methods and important design elements
- Example problems to illustrate methods and equations
Learning Outcomes
- Learn how to apply the wind load provisions in ASCE 7-16 to design situations
- Become acquainted with ASCE 7-16 changes
- Use the wind provisions to solve an engineering problem
- Describe the design issues that must be considered when buildings are not exactly like those used to develop the wind provisions
Webinar Benefits
- Gain an understanding of how wind interacts with building elements and how building design influences wind pressures
- Examine how to apply the wind load provisions to example buildings
- Learn what the significant changes are in the ASCE 7-16 wind provisions
- Learn how to apply changes in component and cladding loading and how to use provisions for roof mounted solar arrays
Intended Audience
The level of instruction is appropriate for engineers just learning the specific wind provisions of ASCE 7-16 and how to apply those provisions to design situations. The primary audience is structural engineers who have some experience at performing designs for buildings and other structures but have not had much experience with wind design.

About This Item
Full Description
Authors Coulbourne and Stafford provide a comprehensive overview of the wind load provisions in Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures, ASCE/SEI 7-16, focusing on the provisions that affect the planning, design, and construction of buildings for residential and commercial purposes.
Wind Loads: Guide to the Wind Load Provisions of ASCE 7-16 provides a comprehensive overview of the wind load provisions in Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures, ASCE/SEI 7-16. In this helpful guide, authors Coulbourne and Stafford focus on the provisions that affect the planning, design, and construction of buildings for residential and commercial purposes.
Whereas the 2016 revision of ASCE 7 has retained the previously reorganized wind load provisions, the important changes in the ASCE 7-16 wind load provisions are
- Modified wind speed maps for the country west of the hurricane-prone region;
- A fourth wind speed map for Risk Category IV structures;
- Revised methodology to determine exposure category;
- Addition of a ground elevation factor to the velocity pressure equation;
- New provisions for roof top solar arrays, canopies, and bins, tanks, and silos; and
- Revised pressure coefficients for components and cladding for sloped roofs.
