    Icc Ibc 2009 Wind Loads

    Uploaded by

    Antonio QuirozMagan
    This document provides a map showing basic wind speed contours for 3-second gusts across the United States and notes some key considerations for determining wind loads for structural design. The map depicts wind speeds in miles per hour at a height of 33 feet above ground for Exposure C category buildings. Notes specify that linear interpolation is allowed between contours, coastal areas outside the last contour use that contour's speed, and unusual wind conditions may occur in certain terrain that require examination.

    STRUCTURAL DESIGN

    Notes:
    1. Values are nominal design 3-second gust wind speeds in miles per hour (m/s)
    at 33 ft (10 m) above ground for Exposure C category.
    2. Linear Interpolation between wind contours is permitted.
    3. Islands and coastal areas outside the last contour shall use the last wind
    speed contour of the coastal area.
    4. Mountainous terrain, gorges, ocean promontories, and special wind regions
    shall be examined for unusual wind conditions.
