the wind pressure as specified in this Section. All bracing
systems both horizontal and vertical shall be designed and con-
structed to transfer the wind loads to the foundations.
(b) WIND PRESSURE. For purposes of design the wind pressure
shall be taken upon the gross area of the vertical projection of
buildings and structures at not less than fifteen pounds per
square foot for those portions of the building less than sixty
feet (60') above ground and at not less than twenty pounds per
square foot for those portions more than sixty feet (60') above
ground.
The wind pressure upon roof tanks, roof signs, or other
exposed roof structures and their supports shall be taken as not
less than thirty pounds per square foot of the gross area of the
plane surface, acting in any direction. In calculating the wind
pressure on circular tanks, towers, or stacks this pressu~ shall
be assumed to act on six-tenths of thep,DOjected area.
On open-framed structures the area used in computing wind
pressure shall be one and one-half times the net area of the
framing members on the side exposed to the wind.
Greenhouses, lath houses, and agricultural buildings shall
be designed for a wind pressure of not less than ten pounds per
square foot.

wind pressure shall in no case exceed two-thirds of the dead load
resisting moment.

mining stresses all vertical design loads except the roof live
load and crane loads shall be considered as acting simultaneously
with wind pressure. Table 23-C pertaining to wind pressures shall
not be applicable for any purpose.
