It would be nice to be able to apply wind loads on plate elements. Especially given that there is a wind load definition specifically for tanks, but no way to model that tank other than plate elements. The alternatives are a cumbersome to implement, such as placing dummy beams around the plate elements or manually applying the wind load on each element.
This is in our development backlog.
Wind loads on plates is comparatively simple in that it is basically assigning a pressure load on the plate. However I would agree that it would would be good to create a system that can convert the wind pressures that come from the various code requirements into a set of plate pressure loads.
