Conditions to qualify as Partially Enclosed Building. Must satisfy all of the following:
Ao 1.1Aoi
Ao > smaller of 4' or 0.01 Ag
Aoi / Agi 0.20
Where:
Ao = the total area of openings in a wall that receives positive external pressure.
Ag = the gross area of that wall in which Ao is identified.
Aoi = the sum of the areas of openings in the building envelope (walls and roof) not including Ao.
Agi = the sum of the gross surface areas of the building envelope (walls and roof) not including Ag.

Reduction Factor for large volume partially enclosed buildings (Ri) :


If the partially enclosed building contains a single room that is unpartitioned , the internal
pressure coefficient may be multiplied by the reduction factor Ri.
