Hello,

I am trying to design an Excel file to specify data (in sap2000 language) for some basic structures that later on will be exported to SAP2000 to assign the best beam for some conditions.

The problem is that I do not know how to specify in SAP2000 the maximum displacement allowed in the beam

Can anybody tell me the way?
Has anybody tried to do that before? Maybe we can share our solutions

Thank you very much in advance
