Confusion?! Wind Load Dilemma!

Confusion?! Wind Load Dilemma!

hi all

I am trying to design a free standing shield but i cannot seem to get the wind load right

In the picture, it is a tilted windshield with a weight of 500g at the end, and the surface area is 1.6m by 0.5m

Cant seem to find the Coefficient of Drag for such an angle to calculate the load on the shield for 30 mph

Ultimately i would want to find out what is the load, and then what should be the deflection on this shield

any ideas?
