Hello all,
I want to model a 3D nuclear containment in SAP2000. This includes cylindrical shell + torispherical dome + circular raft. Please give a direction to do it in a less tedious way!
I have attached the layout for representation.
Thank...
I some how messed up my units in SAP2000 and ended up getting all my loads multiplied by 1000. For example a UDL of 2.5KN/m on a beam is now showing as 2500KN/m. All the loads in the model got multiplied like this. I can select every element and reassign loads but that would be hectic as number...
Through one of these threads I came to know that the Red and Pink colors of shell elements denote the direction in which local 3 axis is aligned. So when I am creating a slab element which color should come on top surface? And when I am making a Shear Wall model which color should come on outer...
