asce 7 -05, clause 2.4.1
if you read at the end of allowable stress combinations, they do not allow for increase in allowable stress. does this mean we cannot increase soil bearing capacity 33% due to wind or seismic load.
if i'm not mistaken, that is a question for the project geotech.  typically, at least on the projects i have worked on, they allow an increase for such loads, but i don't think it is spelled out in asce 7.
