Place downward uniformly distributed load on your shell. Double check to see which axis is the
vertical axis in your structure.
Analyze the structure:
To change thicknesses:
Then select which plates you want to change thickness and then:
Make sure you increase thicknesses in some parts and decrease in some parts so the overall weight
of the structure is more or less the same.
To add ribs:
Then select lines you want to define as ribs and then click OK.
As you add ribs, make sure to also reduce thicknesses in your plates so that the overall weight stays
more or less the same.
