i'm about to asign quake load (static equivalent analysis) to the center of mas of the structure in SAP2000 3d model
how to find/define center of mass of a structure?
i attached pic as illustration
i already figured out with using point/dirtibuted/area load, but it costs more time to make the load model and the combos..
i interested more in making lanes for this moving load.
I expect more tips for this, how will the structure reacts to the moving load aplied on the lanes?
Is it only...
i'm about to make a wharf model structure on SAP2000 v.10
there is a T24 truck as moving load, moving freely on the slab.
how to model this T24 truck in a 3D structure model
thx
