This model demonstrates the use of a load generator to precisely simulate wind loads on roofs with angled duopitch roof shapes and flat roofs. The special case of a gently pitched duopitch roof shape with a slope of less than 5 degrees is recognized and converted into an equivalent load pattern for a flat roof. The steel hall is used to demonstrate how wind effects can be technically and adequately recorded. The display supports the design process and provides information about the applicability of the load generator in special geometric situations.
