The structure is a substructure, this section of the building is at 10deg to the main structure. Therefore my model does not align with the global axis.en-USTelligent Community 12https://communities.bentley.com/thread/449340?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 02 Mar 2018 17:30:36 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:249b8e27-246c-425f-a592-126b0fa2298fSye<p>The automatic wind load generation can only generate wind loading along the global directions. So your best bet would be to define two wind types each with a different&nbsp;basic wind speed&nbsp;for the two orthogonal global directions which would basically be components of the inclined wind.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/449247?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 02 Mar 2018 06:34:58 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:b428f21e-2ce9-453c-b6ea-4d6da2c5e07fJoe Jordans<p><img src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/pastedimage1519972494277v1.png" alt=" " /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
