[tvar]

Can anyone give me a hand or lead me to a place that can supply local siesmic and wind data for Guinea Africa that can be used in determining forces per ASCE 7 2002 for wind and IBC 2003 for seismic? Thanks

Go to Engineering Publications, then Instructions, then TI and chose TI 809-04 from list.

Sorry, no info on wind loads.

Good luck.
