Re: Modal participation factors

<t>Hi, <br/>
you were very clear. Also because while I was waiting for answers I also supposed this approach. The only problem that remains is that of the masses at the nodes to complete the paragraph C7.3.5, which should be derived manually, because I used the masses as distributed loads along the ...

Modal participation factors

<t>Hi,<br/>
after having carried out a pushover I would need to be able to extrapolate from the modal analysis on the inherent structure, the modal participation factor of the first mode of vibration, in order to reduce the curve, as requested by NTC 2008.<br/>
I see that Seismostruct gives in ...

Re: incremental load

<t>Sorry, <br/>
but I don't understand when you say "since the selection of loaded nodes does require engineering judgement".<br/>
In checks requests (NTC 2008 - Italian Code), I have to provide different distributions between floors (one proportional to the masses and another proportional to the ...

incremental load

<t>Hi, I would like to know whether the pushover (adaptive and non-adaptive) can be assigned automatically to the different nodes of a frame, the various forces incremental or if I have to get them out of the software and then apply them manually. <br/>
I have got exercises carried out by Professor ...
