Breeze through the ASCE-7 Wind Load Provisions

An excellent publication that clarifies new wind load provisions with six detailed examples. These examples vary from tall office buildings to solid billboard sign. This guide also include, errata to ASCE 7-95 Wind provisions, FAQs on Wind provisions, and a great commentary with background information not included in the ASCE 7-95. A very readable book that demands its space in every Structural Engineer's professional library.
