For Maximum hieghts at wind velocities other than 120 MPH, see Conversion Table 38 on the specification page for tables at the <br />beginning of this section and example below, <br />.. See page 3-6 for connection details for 1 x 2 and 2 x 2 to existing 2 x 2, Snap Cap 'snaps' into screw bosses, Therefore, no fasteners <br />are required for connection of Snap Cap to existing 2 x 2, <br />Note: <br />1, For high velocity zones convert to 130 MPH spans, <br />See page 3-6 for connection details for 1 x 2 and 2 x 2 to existing 2 x 2, Snap Cap 'snaps' into screw bosses, Therefore, no <br />fasteners are required for connection of Snap Cap to existing 2 x 2, <br />Example: To calcualate maximum height 'H' at 140 MPH wind velocity for: <br />2" x 2" x 0.044" Hollow Extrusion with Load Width = 4' <br />1, Find 'H' at 120 MPH: H = 4'-7" <br />2, Convert 'H' to decimal feet: H = 4'-7" = 4.58' <br />3, Select the appropriate multiplier from the conversion table 38 found on the specification sheet at the beginning of this <br />section, <br />- if the height is followed by 'b' use Bending multiplier, <br />- if the height is followed by 'd' use Deflection multiplier, <br />4, Multiply 'H' in decimal feet by appropriate multiplier. <br />'H' at 140 MPH is 4.58' x 0.86 = 3.94' = 3'-11" <br /> <br />(p" 'j 1(,& <br /> <br />/ <br />X /,,67 <br /> <br />7.
