Murray J. Morrison, Auteur ; Gregory A. Kopp, Auteur |The current investigation extends the previous work in calculating components and cladding loads for standing seam metal roof clips. It was found that the ASCE 7-05 wind loads for these clips are conservative, while several other studies have sh[...]

Gregory A. Kopp, Auteur ; Jon K. Galsworthy, Auteur ; Jeong Hee Oh, Auteur |Wind tunnel tests of open-frame, low-rise buildings were carried out to determine the drag (base shear) and bracing loads in the direction normal to the frames (parallel to the ridge). In total, 18 configurations were examined in an open country[...]

Gregory A. Kopp, Auteur ; David Banks, Auteur |ASCE 7 does not provide design wind loads for roof-mounted solar panels. This paper discusses the use of the wind tunnel test method, called Method 3 in ASCE 7-05, which was originally intended for obtaining design wind loads for individual buil[...]
