I have an older ANSI A58.1 (1982) that lists in table 10 wind external pressure coefficients for arched roofs Cp. I have a roof springing from ground level. The Cp shown in this old table for windward is 1.4r, for center half is -.7-r and for leeward is -.5. Have these values changed in the later editions?

Many thanks.

I happen to be working on a dome roof.
Is there any special treatment for domes in ASCE 2005?
