Dear Mr. Laprade:
For the above address, the (6) replaced PGT Industries sliding glass doors, Series SGD-670, the minimum
required wind pressures below are based on ASCE 7-16 and FBC 2017 wind load calculations. The applied
wind pressures are as follows for the proposed replacement glazed units for Exposure D, per below and NOA:
20-0429.07:
Series: Door or Window: Height Wind Zone: Applied Wind Pressure:
(3) SGD-670 109”x96” 190 ft 5 +74.5 / -92.6.0 psf
(3) SGD-670 144”x96” 190 ft 5 +62.9 / -89.6 psf
In reviewing respective NOA for the above windows, the calculated respective design pressures are less than
the respective minimum allowable NOA wind pressures as shown on Tables 2 or 3 for 36” wide by 96” high
panels, and as such are acceptable to this office.
If you have any questions, please contact me at any time.
Thank you,
