What is MWFRS vs C&C: Roof Anchorage Forces about?

This technical note discusses the difference between using Component and Cladding (C&C) loads versus Main Wind Force Resisting System (MWFRS) loads to calculate roof-to-wall anchorage forces. It defines MWFRS as structural elements that transfer wind loads acting on the entire structure to the ground. The note argues that roof framing meets this definition and therefore MWFRS loads should be used. It provides examples showing forces on dual-slope and mono-slope roofs come from more than one surface, meeting
