In the 3D frame analysis, I want to assign 4.31KPa of wind pressure on the frame, the result is quite small and unreasonble (support moment). I have selected the KN-m unit and the result is -3.254E-06.
 
Steve,

As you have a wind presure in kN/m^2 and aplied load on FRAME(???) in kN/m'.
Did you multiplied the Presure by the width of the frame suported area when added the frame distributed load?
