In this paper, the complexity of calculating the equivalent static wind loads of long-span roofs is demonstrated on the basis of the present research situation of structural equivalent static wind load. The concept of equivalent static wind loads of extreme effects is proposed, and the numerical methods to calculate equivalent static wind loads of extreme effects of long-span roofs are presented. This paper particularly points out that it is possible to obtain the accurate displacement equivalent static wind loads, but the precise internal force equivalent static wind loads do not usually exist. Taking the cantilevered roofs of two large-scale stadiums for examples, the results obtained indicate the method proposed in this paper is practicable and convenient.
Keywords:Long-span roofs; Equivalent static wind load; Least-square method; Wind-resistant design;
