*IMPORTANT:
The wind charts above represents the safe allowable wind speed that each Pacific heavy duty drop-shade, when properly installed, is capable of withstanding providing that the mounting surface and structure are strong enough to support the shade which is being installed.

The data above are based on the general procedure for determining the design winds on structures as indicated in ASCE 7-88, Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures. This document allows for a momentary gust of a particular amount over and above the steady design wind velocity. This should NOT be interpreted to mean that the above product is to be used in an environment where fastest-mile velocities are greater than the speeds listed in the chart above. This chart should NOT be used to countermand any state or local code provisions. Unusual site conditions or unusual building shapes resulting in extraordinary pressures around corners and/or edges should not have this chart data applied.

Warning: This chart is for Pacific's Heavy Duty Patio Shades. Certified wind loads for Wind & Storm Package are not available.
