I am looking for pressure coefficients compatible with ASCE 7-95/98 for 8-sided roof on top of a octagon gazebo structure. The roof is unenclosed.

garnereng,

Do you mean the gazebo is not enclosed?
I do not believe ASCE 7 address that kind of roof.
Conservatively, I would use the coefficients for a gable roof with the same roof angle.
