Linearly varying acceleration

Hello All,
I have already performed Time History analysis on my model and I have maximum accelerations from another program. In ANSYS I would like to perform an equivalent static analysis on my building. The maximum accelerations per node vary from floor to floor. My question is, how do I apply an acceleration to my building that varies linearly with respect to elevation? I am using Workbench 12.0.1 and can only apply one acceleration to the entire structure.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
