analisi pushover the opposite

Post by mattia86 »

I would like to know if you can run pushover analysis in the direction - x - y. I find it difficult to do so. Make that the analysis in the opposite. Also you can perform the analysis with the forces inclined at an angle? (eg 15 °, 30 .....)
Many thanks

Hi Mattia,
regarding your question on how to perform a pushover analysis in the negative direction, first of all you have to apply the loading values with the sign "-" (in the Applied Loading module), then in the Loading Phases module you have to assign a target displacement again with sign "-". That's all.
Cheers
Federica
