Thank you for your quick response, I had tried the first way and i got a warning message at the beginning of the analysis said: "node n1_B4 is already loaded in the z direction.the last load in this direction is cancelled"
Attached are pictures for the assigned cyclic loads , and the warning ...

How to add a sequence cyclic load (force then displacement Cycles) and obtain hysteresis curves ?
I am modelling a experimental test of steel coupling beam with cyclic loads to obtain (shear-strain and shear-chord rotation) hysteresis curves. I need help to know: How to add a sequence cyclic load start with force cycles following by displacement cycles to get this hysteresis loops ?
