Define Modulus of Elasticity

Post by moutra »

Dear Seismosoft,

I was wondering how i can define the modulus of Elasticity for the concrete material without depending on the compressive strength.

Hi,
if you are employing one of the following concrete model, "con_cc", "con_vc" or "con_hs", the material modulus of elasticity is internally computed by the program; if you are employing concrete model "con_tl", the elasticity modulus (initial stiffness) is explicitly defined by the user
For details, refer to the Help System of the program (in particular, Help System -> Analysis types -> Eigenvalue Analysis)
