Hi Kosta....
I obtained good result using AutoM3 hinges, however I have some doubts regarding that
1. How moment-rotation curve is generated in auto hinges (FEMA356 beam) ? is it calculated from section propery automatically?
2. how can I ignore strength degradation part (i.e. beyond point C)...
Hi,
I am doing a non linear time history analysis of 2D RC frame building in SAP2000, I've prepared a nonlinear model with NL-Link and analysed for an arbitrary sine function and got some result. However I am confused whether my modelling is correct or not. I am attaching the SAP model. Kindly...
Thanks johnbridge231.....actually the analysis was showing instability error....when defining link nonlinear property I left unchecked the DOFs u2, r1, r3....but when I fixed them all then analysis completed successfully....
is my procedure right?.....
Hi,
I am trying to perform a nonlinear modal time history analysis of plane RC frame building (2D frame) in SAP2000 v14. I want to model the frame as concentrated plasticity and for that I tried to use NL Link (Multi linear plastic) at beam ends. My model consists of 3-storey 2-bay frame where...
