Dimensions of the building

Width - B = m

Length - L = m

Height at roof ridge - h1 = m

Height at roof eaves - h2 = m

Pitch angle

α = atan((h1h2)·2B) °

Spacing between:

     - frames - a = m

     - wind columns - b = m

     - side beams - cs = m

     - purlins - cp = m

Basic velocity pressure

Fundamental value of the basic wind velocity - vb_0 = kN/m²
