Modeling building penetration loss at mmWave bands

We would like to model building penetration loss at millimeter wave bands (currently we work at 28 GHz), with tolerable accuracy. We have in the past worked mostly with sub-6GHz bands. We consider various building materials include brick, concrete, wood and glass. Can you please provide guidance on how to account for this in ProMan and/or WallMan.

    You can use the WinProp global material catalogue which includes the electrical properties for typical construction materials (brick, concrete, wood, ...) for a wide frequency range up to 75 GHz (including also 30 GHz). The latest catalogue is available for download on the WinProp homepage. Please send an e-mail to winprop@altair.de if you need the account information for the download.

    Hi,

     
    I'm looking for the material catalog for WallMan indoor modeling, but I don't find the correct link.
     
    Can you help me?
     
    Best regards.
