A wind area is designated by a two character area identifier and consists of one or more surfaces defined using AG2A input lines.

Wind Areas (f more then one pro9ected plane is specified for the same area identifier then the resultant area is used.

Wind Areas !he surface shape may be designated as flat or round together with a corresponding shape factor. !he wind force components are calculated by multiplying the calculated wind pressure by the shape factor and the pro9ected areas. !he wind force is assumed to act at the specified centroid of the surface.
EDI
Wind Load
Wind Areas !he wind load is distributed over the specified number of 9oints. (f more than one 9oint distribution is specified, the program assumes that these 9oints are connected to a rigid body to which the wind force is applied. !he load is distributed to each 9oint by assuming the rigid body is supported at each 9oint by three translational and three rotational springs. !he stiffness of the translational springs is unity while that of the rotational springs is 5.5- in the unit system the problem is defined.
Wind S+ield .ones Cy default, members located above the water surface receive wind loading. !he program allows the specification of wind shield zones where members do not receive wind loading. #ind shield zones are defined by specifying the bottom and top elevation of the zone. 2levations are defined using global z elevation.
