Welcome to the ARE Community, @Dayniel03! We’re happy to have you here.

For more information about wind forces, check out Building Construction Illustrated (1.22, 2.09). There are some great diagrams in there, which really helped me to understand how wind forces act on a building.

Our PPD Practice Quiz has a ton of additional questions to add to your studying in general. Specifically, Questions 28 and 31 are about wind forces:

Hope this helps! Happy studying!
