Wind induces suction almost over the entire pyramidal roof of square plan building models for all roof slopes i e.

This procedure addresses roof overhangs via footnote 8 on figure 28 6 1.
When building a structure it is important to calculate wind load to ensure that the structure can withstand high winds especially if the building is located in an area known for inclement weather.
The effective wind area should be the maximum of.
Obstructed wind flow is considered when 50 or more of the area below the surface of the roof is composed of objects inhibiting wind flow such as a canopy atop a concrete basin at a wastewater treatment plant.
In order for a structure to be sound and secure the foundation roof and walls must be strong and wind resistant.
Canopies with less than 50 obstructions below the roof surface would be considered clear.
Mwfrs roof overhang pressures asce 7 only addresses the windward overhang specifying the use of a positive pressure coefficient of c p 0 8.

Where zone e or g falls on a roof overhang on the windward side of the building use eoh and goh f or the pressure on the horizontal projection of the overhang.
Overhangs on the leeward and side edges shall have the basic zone pressure applied.

The velocity pressure is depending on wind speed and topographic location of a structure as per the code standard velocity pressure q z equivalent at height z shall be calculated as.
Since trusses are spaced at 26ft hence this will be the length of purlins.
