5.2.2. — Structural Loads and Design Procedures

Content not available for this version.

5.2.2.1. — Determination of Structural Loads

(1) Where materials, components or assemblies that separate dissimilar environments or are exposed to the exterior, or their connections, are required to be designed for structural loads, these loads shall be determined in accordance with Part 4.

(2) The structural loads identified in Sentence (1) shall include,

(a) dead loads transferred from structural elements,

(b) wind, snow, rain, hydrostatic and earth pressures, as well as earthquake loads and effects,

(c) live loads due to use and occupancy, and

(d) loads due to thermal or moisture-related expansion and contraction, deflection, deformation, creep, shrinkage, settlement, and differential movement.

(3) Where materials, components or assemblies that separate dissimilar environments or are exposed to the exterior, or their connections, can be expected to be subject to loads or other effects not otherwise described in this Subsection or in Part 4, such loads or other effects shall be taken into account in the design based on the most applicable information available.

5.2.2.2. — Wind Load and Other Air Pressure Loads

(1) This Article applies to the determination of wind load to be used in the design of materials, components and assemblies, including their connections, that separate dissimilar environments or are exposed to the exterior, where these are,

(a) subject to wind load, and

(b) required to be designed to resist wind load.

(2) Except as provided in Sentence (3), the wind load described in Sentence (1) shall be 100% of the specified wind load determined according to Part 4 and based on,

(a) the reference velocity pressure defined in Clause 4.1.7.1.(4), and

(b) the gust effect factor defined in Clause 4.1.7.1.(6).

(3) Where it can be shown by test or analysis that a material, component, assembly or connection described in Sentence (1) will be subject to less than 100% of the specified wind load, the wind load described in Sentence (1) shall be not less than the load determined by test or analysis.

Editor's note

In Clauses 5.2.2.2.(2)(a) and (b), the cross-references to Sentences 4.1.7.1.(4) and 4.1.7.1.(6) are filed in O. Reg. 350/06 with the wrong level word ('Clause 4.1.7.1.(4)' and 'Clause 4.1.7.1.(6)'); this map reproduces the source as filed. The e-Laws consolidation corrects both to 'Sentence'. This correction was not enacted by an amending regulation.

5.2.2.3. — Design Procedures

(1) Structural design shall be carried out in accordance with Subsection 4.1.3. and other applicable requirements in Part 4.
