For Wind

Velocity Pressure (qz) 0.613*Kz*Kzt*kd*V^2


Velocity pressure exposure coc. (Kz) 2.01*(z/zg)^(2/α)

Topographic factor (Kzt) 1


Wind directionality factor (kd) 0.95
Basic wind speed (V) 30.55556

Kz 1.000933

qz 544.2138
0.000544

For Seismic

Seismic Acceleration = 0.224g


= 2.19744 m/s2
= 2197.44 mm/s2
0.613*Kz*Kzt*kd*V^2 (N/m2)
2.01*(z/zg)^(2/α) Z is height above ground=18.8(m), zg and α taken from table 27.3-1 of ASCE 7-16. α=9.5,Zg=274.32(m)
