About this Gig

Pergolas can attract significant uplift even when they look open and lightweight. Get wind, overturning, post-base and attachment forces calculated for your layout.


I provide focused wind-load calculations for attached, freestanding, open-roof and louvered pergolas using client-supplied plans and product information.


My service can include:

  • Site wind-speed and exposure inputs
  • Open or covered-roof load cases
  • Wind uplift calculations
  • Lateral force and base shear
  • Overturning demand
  • Post-base reactions
  • House-attachment forces
  • Required anchor tension and shear
  • Supplied anchor-product comparison
  • Controlling-case summary with assumptions


Send plan and elevation dimensions, overall height, bay spacing, roof type and openness, attachment condition, post base details, project address, surrounding terrain, materials and louver or panel data.

This service provides required forces rather than installation drawings.
