Complete guide to designing rooftop and ground-mounted PV systems for wind loads per ASCE 7-16 and ASCE 7-22, including GCrn coefficients, roof zones, and the new Section 29. Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems must be designed to resist wind loads per ASCE 7 (Minimum Design Loads and. . This paper investigates the wind load characteristics of large-span flexible-support PV arrays with different tilt angles through wind tunnel pressure measurements. The. . Today's photovoltaic (PV) industry must rely on licensed structural engineers' various interpretations of building codes and standards to design PV mounting systems that will withstand wind-induced loads. Previously this had been a problem because although permitting agencies do require assessments. . Lightweight PV systems are uniquely vulnerable to failure from combined wind and snow loads. However, most design codes lack specific guidance for these structures. This study establishes a data-driven load combination factor to improve the safety and reliability of PV system design.
