Wind Loads on Duopitch Roof Building
Verification Example
This verification example compares wind load calculations on a duopitch roof building by means of the ASCE 7-16 standard and by means of CFD simulation in RWIND Simulation. The building is defined according to the sketch and the inflow velocity profile taken from the ASCE 7-16 standard.

How do I apply the ASCE 7 Orthogonal Directional Combination procedure (100% + 30% rule) to my seismic load in a static analysis?
- Why does the load wizard "Member Load from Area Load" give unnecessary concentrated loads?
- Why the eHORA map of Austria gives different snow loads than your Geo-Zone tool?
- Although all the member design checks have been fulfilled, I get the "Not Covered Reinforcement" result. What is the reason?
