Rig Help

I have been working on a design for a while. Now, I need to work on the rig, sails, and spars. I'm planning on doing a rotating wing mast, mainsail only, and an asym. If anyone has any links or information on how to calculate loads for shrouds, masts, bowsprits. Also, can anyone here contribute some information or links on design for wingmasts and shrouds. The sail area of the spinnaker would be around 250 sq. ft and the main would be around 140 sq. ft. Thanks.

TC
