4.1.7.1.(3) | Application | Intent |
OS2 | OP2 | OH4 |
Objective | OP2 Structural Sufficiency of the Building |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Method for calculating the net specified pressure
due to wind on part or all of a surface of a building using
the specified external wind pressures or suctions determined in Sentence 4.1.7.1.(1) and
the specified internal pressures or suctions due to wind on interior surfaces
of buildings calculated using the formula provided.

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the calculation of net wind
pressure on a building surface will not take into account how external and
internal pressures or suctions on building surfaces act to produce forces
in structural elements, which could lead to:
Intent 2: To limit the probability that the calculation of specified
wind pressures or suctions on interior surfaces of buildings will not take
into account all the factors that affect the expected maximum magnitude and
distribution of wind pressures or suctions on interior surfaces of buildings,
which could lead to:
Intent 3: To limit the probability that the calculation of wind load
used for the design of cladding and structural elements for deflection will
not take into account the level of reliability appropriate for deflection
serviceability, which could lead to:
