Example 1b is a simple model of an elastic portal frame. The objective of this example is to give an overview of input format. While the structural model is the same, there are three lateral-load cases: |
|
a. Static Pushover
|
c. Dynamic EQ ground motion
|
|
To run Static Pushover analysis: source Ex1b.Portal2D.Push.tcl The response curves for Ex1b(obtained from the recorders' files DFree.out RBase.out) are as follows: To run EQ ground-motion analysis (BM68elc.acc needs to be downloaded into the same directory): source Ex1b.Portal2D.EQ.tcl The response curves for Ex1b(obtained from the recorders' files DFree.out RBase.out) are as follows: |
