b'STEP 2SELECT THE PATIO TYPEDefinItion of Type 1P AwningThe engineering must allow for all conditions of usages, therfore a standard awning could be used for a carport or patio.In the case of a carport it is possible to have one side blocked more than considered an open side by a car, caravan, camper van, boat etc and so for general awnings/carports the given wind pressure should be used and a type 1 should be considered.In the case where the awning is usually at the rear of the property where it cannot be accessed by large vehicles that could block off one side the wind pressures experienced would be lower so a type 1P is allowed for in this situation.It should be noted that any building in or blocking of the 3 open sides could be considered to require the use of the type 1 engineering.Typically a type 1 would be used for a garage, and type 1P would be considered for a backyard lifestyle awning (providing the requirements are followed for this type).Limits for Using Type 1P Awning ClassificationFollowing are the dimensional requirements for using Type 1 awning classification, which has 1 partial wall.For awning dimensions, refer to figure 1.Awning is to be attached one side only to an existing building.Awning pitchis to be between 1 and 10.Slope of the awning is to be normal to the attached wall.Minimum hc = 0.05 x dMaximum hc = 1.0 x dMaximum hc/wc to be as per Table 1.Maximum blockage under the roof parallel to the attached wall is to be 56% of the projected area.Awnings attached one side that do not comply with the above are to be classified as Type 1.Table 1Dimensional limits for Cp,n=0.5hc/h Max. hc/wc hc/h Max. hc/wc<0.4 Not Allowed 0.75 to 0.8 0.710.4 to 0.5 No limits 0.8 to 0.9 0.450.5 to 0.75 1.0 0.9 to 1.0 0.33ABN: 11 147 861 292E: info@deltapanels.com P: +61 7 3271 2170 W: www.deltapanels.com Version Date:18A: 731 Boundary Road, Richlands, Qld 4077Sydney Depot: 11 The Old Northern Road, Narellan, NSW 25672024-03-24'
