Hi folks,
I have a simple frame with vertical and lateral loads. I have determined the Buckling factor (using ETABS).
I would like to plot ( in plot function feature ) the load in stages vs a specified displacement.
I have tried NL with P-Delta. I need more information and advice.
Would appreciate help. Thanks.
