Hi, im new using pls pole and want to make a load case (.lca) file, but first i want to make sure the meaning of some items such as:

1 Dead Load Factor
2. Wind area factor

I have read that the dead load factor consist on taking account the weight of every element that is installed permanently on the pole;
about the wind area factor i want to make me sure that this column refers to the shape coefficient...

i would appreciate if anyone here can help on this theme.

Regards,

Munir
