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 15 ft, and the roof angle is 20 degrees. The basic wind speed provided by the local building authority is 150 mph. Assume that exposure category D is applicable and that the building is not located on a hill or an escarpment. Determine the velocity pressure, qh.

Use the Simplified Alternative Procedure in ASCE 7-10 Chapter 12, Section 12.14 to answer this question. Assume that the building meets the limitations described therein. A two-story building with the following characteristics has a building frame system consisting of light-frame (wood) walls with wood structural panels rated for shear resistance. A certain shear wall in the building is 120 feet long by 24 feet tall and weighs 12 psf. Determine the seismic base shear, V, for the wall.Risk Category ISite Class CSS = 0.25, S1 = 0.10

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 5 degrees. The basic wind speed provided by the local building authority is 135 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 2E for Load Case A. Disregard the minimum pressure of 16 psf described in section 28.4.4.

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 a partially-enclosed building. The mean roof height is 15 ft, and the roof angle is 30 degrees. The basic wind speed provided by the local building authority is 140 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 2E using the positive value of GCpi for Load Case A. Disregard the minimum pressure of 16 psf described in section 28.4.4.

A cardboard box that has been glued to the ground experiences pressures p1 = 0.70 psi and p2 = 1.05 psi on one side. The box has dimensions L1 = 18 in., L2 = 8 in., and h = 13 in. Use the pressure tributary to the diaphragm (lid) of the box to determine the reaction force V2 between the diaphragm and the shearwall (short side of the box).
