Parapet Walls with Flat Roof

Tim

Is there a module to calculate wind forces on parapet walls. Would be nice since parapet walls vary in height from generally 3 ft up to 10 ft.

Hi Tim! You can use the Height to top of parapet value to calculate the design wind pressures using ASCE 7-16 and up. You can use flat roof by setting the roof pitch angle to less than 7 degress as per ASCE 7
