How do I go about adding wind loads to my structure so that they are applied to each surface? I have defined my wind type in 'Wind Definitions' and applied it as a wind load, which in turn is shown on my surface, which I have specified as 5mm thick steel, however whenever I analyze the structure I get an error of 'No unsupported masses'.
Could someone please advise me on where I am going wrong.
Many thanks.
Hi Johnlittle. You are using the wind load to SNiP 2.05.07-85, so the program is probably processing the wind pressure on structure in a different manner. If you custom the intensity vs height then let the program work out to ASCE (if you desire) then range the extent of wind load effect no such error occurs.
