However, you still have the option to run a wind simulation for such structures. To do this, deactivate the visibility for the objects concerned, for example, using the View navigator (see Image 02).

Deactivating Visibility of "Dummy Rigid" Cross-Sections in View Navigator

Then, in the "Simulate and Generate Wind Loads" dialog box, the "Settings" tab, activate the "Export active objects only" option (see Image 03).

You can then open the model in RWIND or simulate it directly in the background.
