For Maximum hleghts at wind velocities other than 120 MPH, see Conversion Table 3B <br /> on the specification page for tables at the beginning of this section and example below. <br /> Note: <br /> For high veloclly zones, convert to 130 MPH spans <br /> Example: To calcualate maximum height 'H' at 140 MPH wind velocity for: <br /> 2" x 2" x 0044" Hollow Extrusion with Load Width = 4' <br /> 1. Find 'H' at 120 MPH: H=6'-11" <br /> 2. Convert 'H' to decimal feet: H = 6'.11" = 6.H2' <br /> 3 Select the appropriate multiplier from the conversion table 3A found on the <br /> specification sheet at the beginning of this section. <br /> - if the height is followed by 'b' use Bending multiplier <br /> If Ih" bAlghl is followed by 'd' use Deflection multip~er <br /> 4 Multiply 'H' In decimal feet by appropriate multiplier <br /> '11' ill 140 MPH is 6.11' x 0.92 = 5.62' = 5'.7" <br /> Lawrence E.
