Building on Gravity Loads (ASCE 7), this video introduces lateral wind loads that are applied to structures. It follows ASCE 7 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures.
It starts with a discussion of how lateral loads come into a structure, work their way through it, and down to the foundation. It then discusses how to calculate wind loads on a typical structure.
Much of the video relies on material by the author in Introduction to Structures, published by Routledge.
This video is followed by Lateral Loads (ASCE 7) Part 1.
