For parapets: Case A = Pressure towards building
Case B = Pressure away from building (suction)
Not positive but the ASCE 7 Method 2 for sun shades or canopies, using
the "partially enclosed" building requirements.

Subject: 2006 IBC WIND ANALYSIS Question
Ladies & Gents,
Can someone please clarify (simplify) the wind loading
on parapets in section 6.5.12.4.4 related to load case
A & B. My results seem very high. Also which section
best addresses the wind loading on canopies (or sun
shades).
Thanks in advance.
