A positive wind load stands for pressure whereas a negative wind load
indicates suction on the surface. This definition applies for the external wind
action as well as for the internal wind action.
External pressure coefficients
The wind pressure acting on the external surfaces, we should be obtained from
the following expression:

The internal pressure coefficient depends on the size and distribution of the
openings in the building envelope.
Within this example it is not possible to estimate the permeability and
opening ratio of the building. So cpi should be taken as the more onerous of
+ 0,2 and 0,3. In this case cpi is unfavorable when cpi is taken to + 0,2.

The wind loadings per unit length w (in kN/m) for an internal frame are
calculated using the influence width (spacing) s = 7,20 m:
2) downwind face
w = (cpe + cpi) qp s
Internal and external pressures are considered to act at the same time. The
worst combination of external and internal pressures are to be considered for
every combination of possible openings and other leakage paths.

Shape coefficients are needed for an adjustment of the ground snow load to a
snow load on the roof taking into account effects caused by non-drifted and
drifted snow load arrangements.
The roof shape coefficient depends on the roof angle.
