Question about defining pressure load, variable part from liquid

A question about defining pressure load, variable part from liquid (hydrostatic pressure).

 

How can I choose on which side of the shell the pressure load is acting?

 

Now I have problem that some pressure loads are acting on the internal surface of the shell and some pressure loads  are acting on the outer surface of the shell. Structuce model is a concrete container consisting base slab and 4 walls which are concrete shells. Container is full of water.

You have two options to choose from:

 

1. Reverse the direction of the local Z axis of the panel(s)

2. Change the value of load (weight of liquid) from positive to negative in the definition of the load itself
