You now apply pressure loads to the roof and a side vertical glass panel. The study predefines a gravity load representing the weight of the assembly.

  1. Click the down arrow on External Loads Advisor (Simulation CommandManager) and select Pressure .
  2. In the PropertyManager, on the Type tab under Type, select Normal to selected face.
  3. In the graphics area, select the face of the roof for Faces for Pressure .

  4. Under Pressure Value, in Unit select psi, then for Pressure Value type 0.625.
  5. Click .

Repeat steps 1 through 5 to define a wind load (pressure) of 0.15 psi on the face of the vertical glass panel as shown.
