Abstract
The purpose in preparing this paper was twofold: (1) To describe in detail a procedure for applying the K-percentage method of wind stress analysis which was presented.2 in 1939, in order to facilitate its practical utilization; and (2) To present a method of design, using the aforementioned principles, but with the assumption that vertical wind reactions and direct wind stresses in columns must be in accordance with the cantilever relation, thus eliminating all secondary moments due to change in length of columns under their direct wind stresses.
