Thanks for reply,
I have not used auto seismic case. I have calculated total seismic wt. of building, base shear and calculated the EQ loads and applied it as rigid floor diaphragm . How can i check for lateral load elevation range? Please find the attached file and help me...
I am modelling 6 storied building , during analysis my sap2000
i found that above 5th floor i.e at roof level earthquake load in not involved in the analysis. only gravity load takes part in analysis. i have modeled building for many times, up to 5th floor is okay, above it, lateral load does...
Thank you Mike
I have to design a ramp for two storied basement parking.The storey height is 3.6m and width of ramp is 6m.
I am planning to design as straight ramp supported by column of upper floor and lower floor or suggest me other ideas for designing ramp.also i wanted to now about design...
Thank you for your suggestion.
I have learned SAP but i am in confusion that whether to model superstructure only or model both(superstructure and substructure in one model) for earthquake resistant building.AS earthquake load is acting from first floor.
I wanted to know whether to model the...
