3. DISCUSSION
Figures B-1 through B-6 in appendix B show the height versus peak
total pressure for peak wind velocities. Figure B-1 shows that,
for a building or structure above 250 feet, the method in ASCE
Paper No. 3269 has larger calculated peak total pressures. As
the peak Wind velocity increases, ANSI A58.1-1982 emerges as the
standard that calculates the largest total pressure, which is
apparent in figures B-1 through B-4. When the peak wind is 115
mph and greater, ANSI A58.1-1982 analytically produces the
largest total pressure, which is apparent in figures B-4 through
B-6.

example of this can be seen in figures A-I and B-I for a 275-
foot-tall building or structure acted upon by a 100-mph wind.
Figure A-l, which uses steady-state winds, indicates that the
ANSI A58.1-1982 method calculates a larger velocity pressure than
the ASCE Paper No. 3269 method; however, figure B-l, which uses
peak wind rather than steady-state wind, indicates that the ASCE
Paper No. 3269 method should be used instead of ANSI A58.1-1982.
The dilemma over which method to use can be eliminated if the
question of which type of wind should a building or structure be
designed for (a steady-state or peak wind) is answered.
