Return to Perka Library Wind Load Have the builder specify this value in lbs/square feet. As a good benchmark, use 12 lbs./square feet. A building should handle this pressure acting on the total building area facing the wind. Be careful about wind loads expressed in miles-per-hour, because engineers must make a number of assumptions to convert wind speed to actual wall pressure.
