WIND CODE BASED WIND ANALYSIS OF RECTANGULAR
STRUCTURES ANALYSIS | G02
Summary Wind calculates free stream velocity pressures and wind loads on various building geometries.
What makes this module special?
Simplified input Dou-pitched and mono-pitched roofs Integrates with Sumo and Frame
Detailed Description Wind eliminates the tedium of wind loading by computing the free stream velocity pressures, including frictional effects due to wind, on building structures based on a few simple inputs. Three-dimensional depictions of input and output illustrate the wind direction and pressure vectors, thus reducing the effort of transferring wind loading to the correct regions of an analysis model. Mono-pitched and duo-pitched roofs are supported. Frame and Sumo integrates with Wind via the portal and trussed frame wizards.
