Use of the #AREA attribute


Q: How can I get beam wind force when I specified head wind only?
REV 5.03

A: You specified X, Y and Z values for area on the #AREA command. The #AREA command defines a plane on which the environment acts using these values. The force normal to this plane is then calculated by the program. To truly separate the different planes when describing cargo, use one #AREA command for each plane.
