Use the MWFRS Envelope Procedure in ASCE 7-10 Chapter 28, Part 1 to answer this question. Assume that the building meets the conditions described therein. You have been tasked with designing an enclosed building. The mean roof height is 25 ft, and the roof angle is 30 degrees. The basic wind speed provided by the local building authority is 110 mph. Assume that exposure category D is applicable and that the building is not located on a hill or an escarpment. Determine the MWFRS design wind pressure, p, on Zone 1E using the positive value of GCpi for Load Case A. Disregard the minimum pressure of 16 psf described in section 28.4.4.

The dimensions for 2×12 standard dressed (S4S) sawn lumber is _______.

Use the MWFRS Envelope Procedure in ASCE 7-10 Chapter 28, Part 1 to answer this question. Assume that the building meets the conditions described therein. You have been tasked with designing an open building. The mean roof height is 15 ft, and the roof angle is 20 degrees. The basic wind speed provided by the local building authority is 135 mph. Assume that exposure category B is applicable and that the building is not located on a hill or an escarpment. Determine the MWFRS design wind pressure, p, on Zone 4E for Load Case A. Disregard the minimum pressure of 16 psf described in section 28.4.4.

People with which of the following styles are usually concerned with the personal development of others and may make decisions that help others achieve their goals?

You have been tasked with designing a barn. According to ASCE 7-10, what is the risk category for this building? Note that specific examples for each category are listed in the ASCE 7 commentary at the end of the document.

Girders G1, G2 and G3 in the roof framing plan support loads from purlin P1. Use ASD to determine the maximum bending moment in girder G3. The roof dead load is D = 15 psf.    The reduced roof live load for this girder is Lr = 15 psf.

What is the incising factor, Ci, for the compression strength perpendicular to grain of a sawn-lumber member?
