Generation of Wind Loads and Alternatives for Complex Geometries

Is it possible to generate wind loads according to DIN EN 13782 with this program?


Answer:

No, the program does not currently provide any wind load generation according to DIN EN 13782. In the "Tools" menu, however, a large number of load generators is available and independent of various standards. You can find an overview of all load generators by clicking the following link.

Since wind load generation is a very complex topic for any model geometries and the standards only display suitable cp values for specific body shapes, there is an alternative in our product portfolio - the RWIND Simulation program. This program simulates the wind flows around any building in a digital wind tunnel and generates the resulting wind loads for further structural analysis.
