Section 207.5.7.2 Topographic Factor
The wind speed-up effect shall be included in the calculation of design wind loads by using the factor
Kzt
2
Kzt = (1 + K1K2K3)
where K1, K2, and K3 are given in Figure 207-4.
Since the site conditions and locations of structures do not meet all the conditions specified in Section
207.5.7.1, the Kzt = 1.0
Enclosure Classification GC pi
Enclosed Buildings ±0.18
P @ roofs
P = qh[(G)(Cp) - (GCpi)]
For Windward:
P = 0.6078996 [(0.85)(-0.842326) - (±0.18)]
P = -0.5446641207 kPa or
P = -0.3258202647 kPa
For Leeward:
P = 0.6078996 [(0.85)(-0.538766) - (±0.18)]
P = -0.3878102185 kPa or
P = -0.1689663625 kPa

P7.2 = -0.148935402 kPa
P p = q p GC pn
GCpn = +1.5 for windward parapet, -1.0 for leeward parapet
For Windward
Pp = (0.628404)(1.5) = 0.942606 kPa
For Leeward
Pp = (0.628404)(-1.0) = -0.628404 kPa
