Abstract
When a computer model of a bar-truss structure exists for analysis by the NASTRAN or IDEAS computing programs, it can also be used to calculate the wind loadings. By using the cross-flow principles and vector analysis, a software was generated for computing the wind loads on the nodes or joints of the computer model. Detailed descriptions of the algorithms used and probable accuracy of the solution are included.
