Snow/Wind Loads - Indian Code IS: 875

After defining general structure parameters necessary to generate snow/wind loads (envelope, spacing, depth) for the Indian code IS: 875, you must specify parameters of snow and wind loads.

The Snow/Wind Loads dialog consisting has 4 tabs:

• General Parameters
• Wind
• Snow
• Permeability.

In addition to the standard buttons OK, Cancel, and Help, at the bottom of the dialog there are the following 2 buttons:

• Generate - Starts generating snow and wind loads based on the parameter specified in the Snow/Wind Loads dialog. This automatically creates load cases for a structure according to the requirements of the selected snow/wind load code.
• 3D Generation - Opens the Snow/Wind Loads - 3D Geometry dialog.
