EC 97911-099 WIND LOAD / DEAD LOAD CHARTS

WIND LOAD CHARTS

Mullions are designed for deflection limitations in accordance with AAMA TIR-A11 of L/175 up to 13'-6" and L/240 +1/4"
above 13'-6". These curves are for mullions WITH HORIZONTALS and are based on engineering calculations for stress
entrance, window, and curtain wall products vary widely. Kawneer does not control
the selection of product configurations, operating hardware, or glazing materials,

and deflection. Allowable wind load stress for ALUMINUM 15,152 psi (104MPa), STEEL 30,000 psi (207MPa). Charted
Laws and building and safety codes governing the design and use of glazed

curves, in all cases are for the limiting value. Wind load charts contained herein are based upon nominal wind load
utilized in allowable stress design. A conversion from Load Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) is provided. To convert
ultimate wind loads to nominal loads, multiply ultimate wind loads by a factor of 0.6 per ASCE/SEI 7. A 4/3 increase in
allowable stress has not been used to develop these curves. For special situations not covered by these curves, contact
your Kawneer representative for additional information.
and assumes no responsibility therefor.

DEADLOAD CHARTS
Horizontal or deadload limitations are based upon 1/8" (3.2), maximum allowable deflection at the center of an
intermediate horizontal member. The accompanying charts are calculated for 1" (25.4) thick insulating glass or 1/4" (6.4)
thick glass supported on two setting blocks placed at the loading points shown.
