bakhtiyar,

If you really need to subject your structure to two earthquake components with different durations (it sounds peculiar to us, but you surely have a good reason for it), then just add zero values to the shortest of the two, so as to render both components with the same duration.

If the two components of your earthquake record are defined with a different time-step (again, this is an unexpected use-case to us, since two components of a given earthquake are typically recorded with an identical time-step), then just use tools such as SeismoSignal to get such time-histories to use a common time-step.
