Asce 7 16 added another zone and it presents the potential to have four roof zones.
D can be greater than 600ft from this insertion point if the distance of the structure is less than or equal to the height of the structure 20.

Figure asce 7 95 external pressure coefficients gcp for loads on building components and cladding for enclosed or partially enclosed buildings with mean roof height h less than or equal to 60 ft 18 m.
12 l r 20 environmental loads wind loading structure is a regular shape located in a windborne debris region with terrain classification of exposure c and surrounded by flat terrain.
Mean roof height as defined in asce 7.

We shall only calculate the design wind pressures for purlins and wall studs.
Visually aama tir a15 14 illustrates the mean roof height as per the image below where h on the sloped roof is ridge height eave height 2.
Mean roof height asce 7 per asce 7 the mean roof height h is defined as the average of the roof eave height and the height to the highest point on the roof surface except that for roof angles of less than or equal to 10 the mean roof height is permitted to be taken as the roof eave height.
For intermediate values of vasd the height associated with the next higher value of vasd shall be used or direct interpolation is permitted.
The simplified procedure is for building with a simple diaphragm roof slope less than 10 degrees mean roof height less than 30 feet 9 meters regular shape rigid building no expansion joints flat terrain and not subjected to special wind condition.
Asce 7 05 and asce 7 10 have three roof zones.

This table compares results between asce 7 10 and asce 7 16 based on 140 mph wind speeds in exposure c using the smallest ewa at 15 foot mean roof height in zone 2.
Gc p can be determined for a multitude of roof types depicted in figure 30 4 1 through figure 30 4 7 and figure 27 4 3 in chapter 30 and chapter 27 of asce 7 10 respectively.
