Description
MecaWind is a specialized software tool designed to compute wind loads and pressures on the main wind force resisting system (MWFRS) of various structures, including buildings, towers, chimneys, tanks, solar panels, and more. It adheres to the ASCE 7 standard, which is the benchmark for design loads in the United States and is published by the American Society of Civil Engineers. The software features multiple iterations of the ASCE 7 standard, as well as the Florida Building Code (FBC), allowing users to access ASCE 7-05, ASCE 7-10, and the most current ASCE 7-16. Each version represents a distinct update to the standard, with ASCE 7-16 being the latest and including numerous revisions compared to ASCE 7-10. While ASCE 7-05 is part of the software's offerings, it is less commonly used in contemporary applications across various jurisdictions. This comprehensive suite enables engineers to ensure compliance with the latest building codes and standards for wind load assessments.
Description
MkaPEB offers a diverse selection of template types specifically designed for portal frames and steel roof truss systems that feature variable cross-sections. Each aspect of the roof systems within these templates is parametric, allowing for flexible customization; they can be positioned side by side or at varying heights as needed. Once the wind parameters are established in accordance with regulations, the application automatically computes the distributed loads impacting both the roof and the facades of the building. These loads are seamlessly transferred to the roof and wall purlins before being relayed to the primary structural support system. A significant challenge in calculating snow loads arises from the snow that accumulates in areas between different elevations of roof systems. To address this, the calculation methodologies can be found in EN-1991-1-3 and ASCE-07-16, which outline how to account for increased loads due to snow accumulation effectively. In addition, careful consideration of these factors is essential for ensuring structural integrity and compliance with safety standards.
