Is there a way of adding the Seismic loads to a slab foundation in Risa Foundation. I know there is the insert function in 3D but that is not present in Foundation. Is it that I need to calculate and add the loads to the foundation manually?
 
Got my answer from risa themselves, no seismic function on risa foundation as its not a typical thing to account for on the slab itself. It can be done as lateral point load if needed however
