Design Level Exceedance- Peak Gust Wind Speeds, Hurricane Katrina
This map shows areas where the 3-second wind gusts from Hurricane Katrina exceeded the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)7 building design levels. These levels are displayed by the census tract and are intended to show the areas likely to suffer damage due to design level exceedance. These are areas where the performance of structures built to design recommendations may be compromised.
