Hi there,
I'm trying to evaluate the target displacement of my Push-Over-Analysis. I used the Accel load case to receive the pushovercurve and according to Eurocode 8 the target displacement are generated for Damage limitation, Significant damages and near collapse are 0,5; 1,0 and 1,5 of the...
Hi there,
I'm currently analysing a 3D model of a building and for the Pushover-Analysis I also wanted to plot a graph of the force of each storey over the deformation, so that I can calculate the stiffness of each storey individually. I already read that there is some kind of storey stiffness...
Hi there,
I'd like to simulate the hysteretic behaviour of a wall and currently what I'm doing is to define load cases for each direction and displacement and combine the pushover curves in the end. I use the displacement control and define displacements the first few points of the courve from...
Thanks for the answer. For the compression deflection I also thought that it might be fine like this but as I'm fairly new I also thought that there might be a "cleaner" version.
With the load problem I also came up to not taking the weight into account for the link elements but rather for the...
Hi there,
I'm currentlich starting to learn SAP2000 and facing a few problems.
I'm trying to build a simple wall with frame elements (blue) and link-elements (green), which should act as springs. From some tests on real walls I know the behaviour of the walls and can describe this with...
