PLEASE NOTE: Since the release of the three wall design modules (shear wall, masonry wall and tilt-up) in v8.0, we have received this question many times through the technical support channels.
Wind pressure in openings is NOT distributed to the adjacent jambs in this modules. The pressure in the area of the openings is NOT included in the design of the reinforced concrete elements or reinforced masonry elements. If this extra pressure is not negligible, the user is responsible for increasing the pressure in the wall.
Version 9.0, which is scheduled to be released late November 2008, will include the option to ignore the pressure in the openings or include it. If included, it will be distributed half and half to the adjacent jambs in a width of wall specified by the user. In the meantime make sure you're using the latest and current version which is v8.5.0.
We hope this clarifies the questions some of you may have with respect to this issue. If you have further questions or comments please contact us at (800) 726-7789.
