(Beginner) How to load pressure on the thin face of PSHELL

Altair EmployeeI made a simple square(500mm x 500mm) pshell with a thickness of 5mm.
I need to load a tensile pressure (1kN/m^2 = 0.001N/mm^2) on each thin faces of the shape, which will stretch my square side-to-side.
But using the pshell, I can't select on the thin face of the shape.
How can I load a pressure then?

In case of pshell, instead of PRESSURE, you have to apply linear FORCE (N/mm).
Approximately, when your load is far enough from the hole, you can apply nodal equivalent force (N) on each thin face.
