Hi, friends!
I’m comparing wind loads calculated as per ASCE 7-05 and Russian SNiP 2.01.07-85.
I’m not familiar with Russian SNiP code, so I don’t have confidence on my calculations.
Anyway, the wind loads from SNiP code are too smaller than those from ASCE 7-05, so I want it to be confirmed by those who experienced this code.
If there is someone who knows SNiP code well, please let me know whether my calculations are acceptable or not.
Thanks in advance,
Kee H. Lee, P.E.
