How to define reinforcement in Pushover

[lukeme]

Dear forum members,

How do we define the existing reinforcement (ratio) in a concrete frame member (column, beam and shear wall) when performing pushover analysis in SAP2000?

Please help. Thanks in advance...

Luke

You should be able to specify reinforcement in a frame member when you specify the material of that member as being concrete. I havent played with it much myself but it appears you can specify the steel and where it is located. Check out the online help and manual for more details.
