A five-story building is shown in Figure P2.8. Following the ASCE standard, the wind pressure along the height on the windward side has been established as shown in Figure P2.8(c). (a) Considering the windward pressure in the east-west direction, use the tributary area concept to compute the resultant wind force at each floor level. (b) Compute the horizontal base shear and the overturning moment of the building.
