ETABS midas Gen

Wind exposure parameters

Wind direction angle : 0 ( For X- direction)
Windward Coeff, Cp : 0.8
Leeward Coeff, Cp : 0.1
But, in midas gen, it is calculated automatically by its own.

ETABS midas Gen

Wind exposure parameters

Wind direction angle : 90 ( For Y- direction)
Windward Coeff, Cp : 0.7
Leeward Coeff, Cp : 0.4
But, in midas gen it is calculated by its own.
