*IMPORTANT:
The wind chart above represents the safe allowable wind speed (Exposure B) that each SUNFLEXX size, when properly installed, is capable of withstanding.  It is the responsibility of the installer to assure that the mounting surface and structure are strong enough to support the awning size which is being installed.

The above wind load figures are the result of tests performed with the advice of, and studies conducted by, Harry Daugherty, P.E. This data is valid only for products manufactured according to information supplied by the manufacturer at the time of the tests and/or studies referred to above.

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 standard Sunflexx awnings. Certified wind loads for Wind & Rain Package and/or Drop Valance equipped awnings are not available.
