Use of the wind tunnel test method for obtaining design wind loads on roof-mounted solar arrays / Gregory A. Kopp in Journal of structural engineering, Vol. 139 N° 2 (Février 2013) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of structural engineering > Vol. 139 N° 2 (Février 2013) . - pp. 284–287 Titre : Use of the wind tunnel test method for obtaining design wind loads on roof-mounted solar arrays Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Gregory A. Kopp, Auteur ; David Banks, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : pp. 284–287 Note générale : structural engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : wind  loads;  wind  tunnels Résumé : 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 buildings. Because roof-mounted solar arrays are generally mounted in many configurations on many buildings of many different shapes, additional requirements are necessary to use Method 3 in this situation. The paper describes these additional requirements.
