Description

MecaWind is a specialized software tool designed to compute wind loads and pressures on the main wind force resisting system (MWFRS) of various structures, including buildings, towers, chimneys, tanks, solar panels, and more. It adheres to the ASCE 7 standard, which is the benchmark for design loads in the United States and is published by the American Society of Civil Engineers. The software features multiple iterations of the ASCE 7 standard, as well as the Florida Building Code (FBC), allowing users to access ASCE 7-05, ASCE 7-10, and the most current ASCE 7-16. Each version represents a distinct update to the standard, with ASCE 7-16 being the latest and including numerous revisions compared to ASCE 7-10. While ASCE 7-05 is part of the software's offerings, it is less commonly used in contemporary applications across various jurisdictions. This comprehensive suite enables engineers to ensure compliance with the latest building codes and standards for wind load assessments.

Description

Like the other Dlubal Software programs RWIND, the wind simulation program RWIND is simple to use and delivers the desired result reliably. RWIND will ensure that the wind does not blow out of your project's sails. RWIND allows for the analysis of wind flows (digital winds tunnel) around buildings and other objects. RWIND uses a CFD simulation, which simulates the effects of wind on the structures. You can run a wind simulation for simple and complex structures. The result will speak for itself. The wind loads calculated using RWIND can then be imported into RFEM and RSTAB.
