Specifies the wind moment TANK uses in the computations of Appendix F.

By default, the software uses the moment computed from Section 5.9.7.1 in Appendix F computations. However, if necessary, the wind moment computed from Section 5.11 can be used.

The wind pressure computed according to Section 5.9.7.1 (based on the wind velocity) is used for the wind girder design. The wind pressure according to Section 5.11 is used for Over Turning Stability. This field only affects which wind moment is passed into Appendix F for the allowed pressure in Section F.4.2.
