texas wind zone issue
i have a question about texas wind zone issues. i checked the wind map of texas at
usually it means these are area specific.  so call the local public works dept and get specific loads...
also be aware that some municipalities have higher design wind speeds (by ordinance) than the building code.
for example, el paso has mandated a 100 mph wind speed.
thanks a lot for replies.
