Mock-up-Wind Loads-2016

This document outlines the wind load calculations for a low-rise building according to ASCE 7-2016 standards. It includes parameters such as building dimensions, basic wind speed, exposure category, and various coefficients used in the calculations. The final design wind pressure is calculated to be 1.08 kN/m² for the main wind force resisting system.
