Hello all,

I have a project which is a 65'X35'X10' tall garage with three 16' bay doors on one side. It is OSB o/ 2/6 walls and manufactured trusses.

The owner wants dormers over each bay.

My question is how to address the dormers in the wind analysis?

I was intending on using method one.

Any insight is appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

No different than the rest of the structure for the A, B, C, and D pressure regions.
