This webinar explores application of uplift and shear loads on gable-, hip- and shed-type porches for main wind-force resisting system (MWFRS) wind loads parallel and perpendicular to a building face. It also includes assessment of component and cladding (C&C) uplift loads for rafters, sheathing and sheathing attachment. Inset or partially inset porches are not evaluated nor are roof lines extending as an overhang over the porch. ASCE 7-16 wind load provisions will be evaluated including selection of applicable pressure coefficients. Prescriptive solutions for uplift and lateral loads are presented. A draft document outlining this methodology and assumptions is being developed and peer review is welcome.
