Dear Sir,
Would like to know the formula for wind loading in CAESAR. I have been giving a shape factor of 0.67 in my Analysis. Can I get the formula to calculate the wind force, since I need to design my frame and pipe support using the wind force it should withstand during operation.
Thanks & Regards,
SAM.

Check out which code you are using and read that code.

CAESAR II (through Version 5.10) uses the formula from ASCE #7.
