Wind Force Comparison in Industrial Structures between Iranian Code and AISC

Industrial structures, are usually to construct studiums, factories, exhibition complexes and similar facilities. With regards to their lightness and lower weight to their extent and area. Often, wind force is prevailing earthquake force in this structures design proccess; So, this type of structures design to resist against wind force.In this Paper, wind forces, which act on most of industrial structures, from part 6 of Iranian National Building Regulation (Design Loads for Buildings Code) have bben compared to that forces resulted from ASCE/SEI (American Society of Civil Engineers, Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and other Structures). Both resulted wind forces, are calculated and used for design forces in 3 different industrial salon (Steel Frame) and their results are compared. To reach considerable results, effective factors on wind force, are assumed constant. For example wind velocity and wind base pressure is determined from 100 km/hour. Also, effect of (Ce) velocity change coefficient and (Cq) shape coefficient have been considered in Iranian Code and ASCE. Finally, results is presented in this paper.
