With this generator, you can e.g. for grillages, you can define free line loads (e.g. from conveyor belts) and prorate them to members.
More InformationGenerating Member Loads from Free Line Load
Wind loads can be automatically generated as member loads on the following structural components (optional with internal pressure for open buildings):
- Vertical walls
- Flat roofs
- Monopitch roofs
- Duopitch/troughed roofs
- Vertical walls with roof
The following standards are available:
- EN 1991-1-3 (incl. National Annexes)
- DIN 1055-4
- CTE DB-SE-AE
- ASCE/SEI 7-16
Area loads can be automatically converted into member loads. There are 2 options available for this:
- Generate Member Loads from Area Load via Plane
- Member loads from area loads via cells
Depending on the selected option, you either have to define a plane via corner nodes or select cells in the graphic. The area load can either be applied to the entire surface or only the effective or projected surface of the members.

More InformationThis generator creates loads as a result of an acceleration or rotation that acts on specific objects of the model.
The mass is determined from the self-weight.
