b) Distribute that wind pressure to the braced frames that resist that direction of wind load.
c) Determine the axial forces in the first and second story braces and columns in the braced frame from wind load (consider only the lateral wind pressure, do not consider vertical pressure on the roof). For this part you may assume the braced frame can be analyzed on its own, without consideration of the adjacent frames. Additionally, all connections in the braced frame can be assumed to be pins. You only need to consider Load Case 1 of Fig. 27.4-8 of ASCE 7. The braced frame is statically determinate.
b ) Distribute that wind pressure to the braced
