This chord, whilst hard to form makes drop D tuning sound so much fuller, and is a good chord to know. This one basically is BbSus2, and it should be fingered with the pinky on the B string, the ring finger on the G string, and the index finger doing the barre. I haven't tabbed it exactly, rather just randomly picked it. You Wont have to follow this exactly. Make something up!
