"enclosed" for the full design wind.
Doors shall be designed to withstand the design wind speed in
accordance with UFC 1-200-01 and UFC 3-300-10N; these UFC
use the International Building Code 2003 and ASCE 7-02. Do not
use the ASCE 7-02 simplified procedure/method to calculate the
design winds for the door, only an analytical procedure shall be
used. /1/
Hangars are prone to large eccentricities between centers of wind
pressure and centers of rigidity (especially cantilevered hangars). Even
unfactored loads resulting from this eccentricity may be significant. The designer
should consider this eccentricity and to locate the center of rigidity as near to the
center of applied force as practical by careful arrangement of the lateral load
resisting elements.

Seismic Loads. Design seismic with importance factor of 1.
Seismic design criteria may impose significant constraints upon the structural
frame, not only in the loads applied but also in the fundamental choice of framing
system. For instance, an STMF system (per AISC) is limited to a span of 20 m
(65 ft). A combination of site condition, design approach and structural layout will
determine the AISC criteria.
A poor selection of framing, arrangement of bracing or large
asymmetries may result in expensive connection fabrication and testing
requirements or outright prohibition of the fundamental design. The facility
designers should investigate the seismic issues early in the design phase and
plan the building's geometry and structure accordingly.
Hangars are prone to large eccentricities between centers of mass
and centers of rigidity (especially cantilevered hangars). Regardless of the
structural system, the unfactored loads from this eccentricity may be significant.
