Roof Pressure Coefficient, Cp:
The roof pressure coefficients are a function of roof slope and the ratio h/L.
For slope θ<10° and ratio h/L ≤ 0.5

Then the pressure coefficients for C&C having this effective wind area:
Interior Zone 1: (GCP) = +0.20 and -0.90
Eave Zone 2: (GCP) = +0.20 and -1.10
Corner Zone 3: (GCP) = +0.20 and -1.10
Roof Design Pressures on framing members for C&C, as follows:

Interior p = (1620)[−0.90 ± 0.18] p = −1166 𝑎𝑛𝑑 − 1750 𝑁/𝑚2 -1750
Zone 1 p = (1620)[0.20 ± 0.18] p = 615 𝑎𝑛𝑑 32.4 𝑁/𝑚2 𝟔𝟏𝟔

in which the width of Zones 2 and 3, ɑ, shall be the smaller value of:
ɑ = (0.1) (7.6) = 0.76 m (Governs)
ɑ = (0.4) (5.2) = 2.08 m
For the roof panel member, pressure coefficients for C&C having this effective wind area:
Interior Zone 1: (GCP) = +0.20 and -0.90
Eave Zone 2: (GCP) = +0.20 and -1.10
Corner Zone 3: (GCP) = +0.20 and -1.10
