Dear Seismosoft,
I'm working on the 3D analysis of a precast industrial building under static and dynamic loads. Static analysis and dynamic time history analysis can be performed well without including geometric nonlinearities. But, when static analysis and dynamic time history analysis are ...

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
I have installed the new version (v7) of Seismostruct and thank you for the new release of the software.<br/>
I’m performing a dynamic time history analysis (DTHA) for a precast industrial building with considering the structure in three dimensions and the three components ...

<t>Dear Stelios,<br/>
The period of the model for the first mode and second mode (period of second mode is needed for Rayleigh damping) are inserted to damping properties with a damping ratio of 5% (which is a general acceptance for reinforced concrete buildings). By the way the models are working ...

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
I have installed the new version (v6.5) of Seismostruct. I’m performing a dynamic time history analysis for a precast industrial building with considering the whole structure and the three components of ground motion. The DTHA is running fine when damping is not considered ...

The moment releases are working fine with the installation of the new version of Seismostruct. Thank you for the release of v6.5.
Best regards.

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
Thank you for your attention. The model that I've sent to you is the preliminary case of a 3D analysis for a precast industrial building. In the final case of the analysis I will consider all of the frames that generate the whole structure and the three components of ground ...

I sent an e-mail to info@seismosoft.com with the same subject title including the analytical models.
Best regards.

Dear Seismosoft,
Dynamic time history analysis can't be performed with the assignment of moment/force releases. At the beginning of the analysis a warning appears and the analysis stops. By the way the analysis can be performed without releases.
Best regards.

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
I'm using Seismostruct v6 for analyzing a single bay and single storey precast frame. I’m introducing moment releases to the ends of the beam and trying to execute eigenvalue and dynamic time history analyses. The eigenvalue analysis was carried out successfully but dynamic ...

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
I built a model representing nearly the half of an industrial precast frame with a planar (in xz plane) frame. I have two restraints which are assigned to the base of the column and to the mid-span of the beam. The first restraint disables the freedom of all translations and ...
