Select ASCE 7-02 as your Auto Lateral Load, and when specifying the properties for this loading, make sure to click on the Exposure from Frame and Area Objects option and click to include Frame Objects (Open Structure). This procedure automatically accounts for section properties and local axis relative to wind direction in each load case.
