Wind Load
|
Wind load will be applied to the analytical model using the load parameters indicated in the Wind Parameters dialog.
|
|
Gust Load
|
Gust (wind) load will be applied to the analytical model using the load parameters indicated in the Wind Parameters dialog. |
|
Temperature Load

|
Building Type
|
This option is used to create appropriate load combinations.
- For Irregular buildings, both positive and negative direction load cases are generated.
- For Regular buildings, only positive direction load cases are generated.
