Post by venkateshyadav » Mon Oct 23, 2017 5:14 am

Hi,
How many dispBC to be used for matching with one forceBC element? I had the read the file FBE VS DBE and followed same, but am not getting results as such.
Also which element is better to use if one needs to compare with SAP2000 results?
Thanks in advance
