A complete wind load analysis was conducted in an effort to calculate the maximum sustainable wind loads of the R.T.S. shelter. Using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis, MIND Studios determined the actual wind loads on the structure.
A full load analysis was conducted in order to determine reasonable loading scenarios for the R.T.S. shelter in cold weather conditions. The analysis included both traditional structural code requirements along with detailed finite element modeling. Final results are presented herein.
