*75 mph-20 lbs. per sq. ft. curtain area
** 100 mph- 38 lbs. ft. curtain area


To use above table:
Step 1- Select the line under the column headed “Door Height in feet” corresponding to the door selected.
Step 2-Determine the lintel loads on the selected line under the appropriate columns.

Step 3-Multiply the values shown by the door opening width in feet  plus two feet (Addition two feet is the normal overlap) to determine the lintel loads (Horizontal and Vertical).  These figures are the live loads uniformly distributed along the lintel where the curtain is attached.  The resulting calculations are the live lintel loads both vertical and horizontal except as noted below.

Note:

The calculated figures in step 3 are the extra load factors to be used in addition to the static and live loads of the building itself.

These figures are based on standard installation instructions and could be higher on non-standard installation or unusual building conditions.
