RSA 2015 - wind loads on towers

[Mohammed_Ata]

opening module Shell Design - Loads menu - wind & snow - Wind loads on towers . i have modeled a building of 30 stories (tower) , this option is still deactivated ! how can i use this option for this tower ?

[Rafal.Gaweda]

Tower = Pylon

French code only

3D frame structure type only

Hi Mohammed,

Please mind that in addition to being limited to selected codes only the option is intended for electricity towers and is not applicable for buildings having shapes of towers.

[Mohammed_Ata]

ok , thank you .

i hope this option to be valid for multistory buildings .

Why its limited to french code only?

[Rafal.Gaweda]

Because only this code was implemented for this option.

[Jummybear]

Is it possible to implement EVS-EN 1991-1-4:2005 in future? Its the general eurocode for wind loads.
