3 Example 3 - A steel-framed warehouse on the edge of an urban area

Design wind loads are required for a steel portal-framed warehouse in Manukau at the southern
edge of the Auckland metropolitan area. The relevant information is as follows:
Location : southern edge of Auckland (Region A6)

Terrain : Suburban terrain for westerly through northerly to south-easterly
directions. Open water to south and south-west.
Topography : ground slope less than 1 in 20 for greater than 5 kilometres in all
directions.
Dimensions : eaves height : 5.85 m
Horizontal dimensions, (Figure 5.3) : 25 metres 15 metres.
Gable roof with 5 degrees pitch.
average roof height = 5.85 + 0.5(7.5 tan 5o) = 6.2 metres
Building orientation : major axis is North-west South-east
Steel portal frame construction. Frames are spaced at 5 m.
The building has a large (4m wide by 3 m high) roller door on the south-west wall.
There are windows (1 m2) near the south-east end, and a small (2.5 m2) door near
the north-west end, of the north-east wall.

Regional wind speed

According to AS/NZS1170.0 Table 3.1, [8], the structure should be treated as Importance
Level 2. Hence take average recurrence interval, R, equal to 500 years (Table 3.2 in [4]).
From Table 3.1 in AS/NZS1170.2, VR = 45 m/s (Region A)
Wind direction multipliers for Auckland (Region A6) are given in (Table 3.2). Values range
from 0.85 (N, S) to 1.0 (E, W).
Terrain-height
z=h=6.2 m, for Terrain Category 3, Mz,cat = M6.2,cat3 = 0.83 (Table 4.1(A))
for Terrain Category 2, Mz,cat = M6.2,cat2 = 0.93 (Table 4.1(A), by interpolation))
Shielding
The building has other industrial development to the north and west, assume a Shielding
Multiplier, Ms, of 0.85 for N, W, NW directions. Take Ms =1.0 for other directions.
Topography
Topographic Multiplier, Mt = Mh = 1.0
Site wind speed
Site wind speed for North direction, Vsit,N = 45(0.85)(0.83)(0.85)(1.0) = 27.0 m/s (Equation 2.2)
For all wind directions, site wind speeds are calculated in the following table.

Design wind speeds

In this case, the building is orientated NE-SW and NW-SE, and the design wind speeds, Vdes,
can be obtained by inspection from Vsit, in the above table, for the four wind directions
orthogonal to the building walls:
Vdes,NE = 37.4 m/s (largest from N to E sector)
Vdes,SE = 37.4 m/s (largest from E to S sector)
Vdes,SW = 39.8 m/s (largest from S to W sector)
Vdes,NW = 31.7 m/s (largest from W to N sector)
Aerodynamic shape factor
External pressure coefficients, Cp,e
Windward walls : +0.7 taking z = h =6 m (Table 5.2(A))
Leeward walls (normal to long axis): -0.5 (Table 5.2(B))
Leeward walls (normal to short walls): -0.37 (Table 5.2(B) by interpolation for d/b =1.67)
Side walls (0 to 6.2 m from windward edge): -0.65 (Table 5.2(C))
Side walls (6.2 m to 12.4 m): -0.5
Side walls (12.4 m to 18.6 m): -0.3
Side walls (beyond 18.6 m): -0.2
Roof (0 to 6.2 m from windward edge): -0.9, -0.4 (Table 5.3(A))
Roof (6.2 m to 12.4 m): -0.5
Roof (12.4 m to 18.6 m): -0.3, +0.1
Roof (beyond 18.6 m): -0.2, +0.2
Area reduction factors (Table 5.4)
For wall loads on end frame columns (as side wall): tributary areas 5.85 2.5 = 14.6 m2
Ka = 0.97 (Table5.4 by interpolation)
For wall loads on central frame columns (as side wall): tributary areas 5.85 5 = 29.25 m2
Ka = 0.89
For roof loads on end frame rafters: tributary areas 15 2.5 = 37.5 m2 .
Ka = 0.88
For roof loads on central frame rafters: tributary areas 15 5 = 75 m2 .
Ka = 0.83
Local pressure factors (Table 5.6)
a = minimum of 0.2 15 m, 6.2 m = Min{3.0 m, 6.2 m} = 3.0 m
limiting tributary areas for local pressure factors : 0.25a2 = 2.25 m2
a2 = 9 m2
Internal pressures (Section 5.3)

The roller door will be treated as a potential dominant opening (12 m2) for SW wind only. The
background permeability of the other walls is estimated as 0.3% of the wall area, giving a total
area of 5.85 (25 + (2)(15)) 0.003= 0.965 m2.
Then ratio of dominant opening area to total open area due to permeability = 12/0.965=12.4
In this case, for SW winds,
Cp,i = +0.7 (Table 5.1(B))
For other wind directions, the roller door will be assumed closed with the building considered to
have all walls equally permeable.
Cp,i = -0.3 or 0.0 (Table 5.1(A))
Action combination factors
Case (a) in Table 5.5 is applicable to portal-frame loads for NE wind (3 effective surfaces):
Kc = 0.8
Case (b) in Table 5.5 is applicable to portal-frame loads for SW wind (4 effective surfaces):
Kc = 0.8
Case (c) or (d) is applicable, to portal-frame loads, for NW or SE winds, with roof pressures
combining roof with negative side-wall pressures, with or without internal pressures,
(3 or 4 effective surfaces):
Kc = 0.8
Case (h) may be applicable to doors, windows and cladding, if the magnitude of the internal pressure
coefficient is greater than or equal to 0.2:
Kc = 0.9
Otherwise, Kc = 1.0

FRICTIONAL DRAG ON ROOF AND SIDE WALLS

Frictional drag according to Section 5.5 applies only for the roof and side walls beyond a distance
of 4h (= 4 6.2 =24.8 m) from the windward edges. This distance clearly exceeds the along
wind dimension of 15 m for the NE and SW wind directions, and the frictional drag is therefore
zero. For the SE and NW directions the length of the building (25 m) is approximately equal to
4h; hence in these cases the frictional drag can be neglected also.
DESIGN WIND PRESSURES FOR DOORS AND WINDOWS (ULTIMATE LIMIT STATES):
(note: for permissible stress design divide loads by 1.5)
For roller door (12 m2) on the south west wall:

positive case SW wind 39.8 m/sec door on windward wall

Cfig (external) = Cp,e (Ka) (Kc,e) (K) = -0.5 (0.987) (1.0) (1.0) = -0.49
(notes: K= 1.0, since A> a2; Ka= 0.987 for A = 12 m2 from Table 5.4)

wind directions should be checked)

Positive case NE wind 37.4 m/sec window on windward wall
Cfig (external) = Cp,e (Ka) (Kc,e) (K) = +0.7 (1.0) (0.9) (1.5) = +0.945

Negative case SE wind 37.4 m/sec window on side wall

Cfig (external) = Cp,e (Ka) (Kc,e) (K) = -0.65 (1.0) (1.0) (2.0) = -1.3 (negative case SE wind)
Net pressure across window = -1.09-(0.0) = -1.09 kPa
Negative case SW wind 39.8 m/sec (with roller door open) window on leeward wall
Cfig (internal) = Cp,i Kc,i = 0.7 (0.9) = +0.63
pint = (0.5 air) Vdes,2 Cfig Cdyn = (0.5)(1.2) (39.8)2 (+0.63)(1.0) = +599 Pa = +0.60 kPa

Loading on roof purlins should be applied as moving patch loads with the appropriate local
pressure factor for that area. For example, in this case, if the purlin spacing is 0.6 m, the tributary
area for a patch 2.5 m long (equal to one half the frame spacing) would be 2.5 0.6 = 1.5 m2.
Since this area is less than 0.25a2, the local pressure factor could be 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 or 3.0,
depending on the distance of the centre of the patch from the roof edge or corner. Over the
remainder of the purlin, K should be taken as 1.0 for that load case; i.e. the loading should be the
same as that used for major structural members.
