This document calculates wind load parameters for a 7.5 meter tall residential building in Iligan City, Philippines. It determines the basic wind speed is 125 kph based on the location's wind zone of 3. It then calculates the windward wall pressure as 0.88 kPa and the leeward wall pressure as -0.568 kPa. The final wind overturning moment is determined to be 9.23 kN-m.
