"Guide to the Use of the Wind Load Provisions of ASCE 7-98 will assist structural engineers who design buildings and structures following the wind load provisions."--BOOK JACKET.

&Quot;Guide to the Use of the Wind Load Provisions of ASCE 7-02 assists professionals in the use of wind load provisions of ASCE Standard 7-02. This revision of Guide to the Use of the Wind Load Provisions of ASCE 7-98 includes the significant changes made to the wind load provisions of ASCE 7-02, Section 6. The changes are incorporated in 12 wind load scenarios with detailed explanations in the examples on how they should be solved. In addition, 31 frequently asked questions will help professionals interpret the provisions of ASCE 7-02. This Guide is essential for practicing engineers and architects."--BOOK JACKET.

The objective of the Guide to the Use of the Wind Load Provisions of ASCE 7-95 is to provide guidance in the use of the wind load provisions set forth in ASCE Standard 7-95. The Guide is a completely new document because the wind load provisions underwent major changes from the previous ASCE Standard 7-88 (or ASCE 7-93). The Guide contains six example problems, worked out in detail, which can provide direction to practicing professionals in assessing wind loads on a variety of buildings and other structures. Errata and Clarifications from the previous guide is also included.

Mehta and Coulbourne explain the wind load provisions of Standard ASCE/SEI 7-10 as they affect the planning, design, and construction of buildings for residential and commercial purposes.

Authors Coulbourne and Stafford provide a comprehensive overview of the wind load provisions in Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures, ASCE/SEI 7-16, focusing on the provisions that affect the planning, design, and construction of buildings for residential and commercial purposes.

Authors Stafford and Reinhold provide a comprehensive overview of the wind load provisions in Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures, ASCE/SEI 7-22, focusing on providing direction while using the provisions that affect planning, designing, and constructing buildings for residential and commercial purposes.

T. Eric Stafford summarizes the changes to the wind load requirements set forth in the latest edition of the Standard for minimum design loads.

Standard ASCE/SEI 7-22 provides requirements for general structural design and includes means for determining various loads and their combinations, which are suitable for inclusion in building codes and other documents.
