Anyone have wind load guidance for an ASCE 7-10 Open Building with 1 solid wall and roof slope is greater than 5 deg?

All i can come up with is solid freestanding wall pressures, but i feel like i've been in a webinar where this has been addressed. Has anyone come across this?

I think there's a category to the tune of an open roof with obstructed wind flow? phamENG mentioned that recently in another thread as well I believe.
 
Yes, there is in that ASCE modifies the roof pressures but is silent on the obstructed area.
