Notes: 1. (+) and (-) signs signify wind pressures acting toward & away from respective surfaces.
2. Width of Zone 2 (edge), 'a' = 14.67 ft.
3. Width of Zone 3 (corner), 'a' = 14.67 ft.
4. For monoslope roofs with q <= 3 degrees, use Fig. 6-5B for 'GCp' values with 'qh'.
5. For buildings with h > 60' and q > 10 degrees, use Fig. 6-5B for 'GCpi' values with 'qh'.
6. For all buildings with overhangs, use Fig. 6-5B for 'GCp' values per Sect. 6.5.11.4.2.
7. If a parapet >= 3' in height is provided around perimeter of roof with q <= 10 degrees,
Zone 3 shall be treated as Zone 2.
8. Per Code Section 6.1.4.2, the minimum wind load for C&C shall not be less than 10 psf.
