Good afternoon, new to posting so hope I do this correctly!
I have a building modeled in Risa 3D and am wanting to use Risa Floor to generate my seismic and wind loads. I know I can't just import my Risa 3D model to Risa Floor, but is there a way to draw up the floor plans in Risa Floor with flexible diaphragms, generate the loads, then just import those into Risa 3d model? I'm new to Risa Floor so not sure whats possible.
I'm trying to avoid re-drawing this building in Risa Floor but really need to get the wind and seismic loads applied and I know Risa 3D only generates seismic when using rigid diaphragms (which this building does not have). I've read you can simulate flexible diaphragms in Risa 3D with mesh plates but heard is difficult or very time consuming?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
