...Combine Input-File Components

A series of Tcl-script input-file components have been presented in this section. These components can be combined to perform a static lateral-load analysis of the portal frame under consideration using the source command:

# ----FullStaticAnalysis.tcl---------------------------------------------------------

wipe

model basic -ndm 3 -ndf 6

source Units&Constants.tcl

source MaterialParameters.tcl

source ElementParameters.tcl

source GravityParameters.tcl

source AnalysisParameters.tcl

source MatlabOutput.tcl

source BuildModel&Nodesw/Variables--portal.tcl

source materialsRC.tcl

source RCcircSec.tcl

source Elements.tcl

source Output.tcl

source DefineGravity.tcl

source runGravity.tcl

source DefinePushover.tcl

source RunPushover2Converge.tcl

This method of breaking the input file into components is convenient when the size of the problem does not permit manageability of a single input file.
