Y direction base shear problem

Post by erdemck »

Dear all,

I am conducting to project the 3 spanned bridge model in seismostruct. However i have some problem.
First one is about the time history analysis results, logical behav of the system is okay but i couldnt get the correctable result with regard Y direction values.
Second one about the piles nnlink systems, are these links similar with the Sap2000 why im asking that main modal behav of the system consists only in soil layer with the piles.

So what do you think i am really looking forward to see your comments.

TY

Erdemck, you need to be a bit more specific. What do you mean that you do not get correct results in the Y direction?
Regarding the nonlinear link elements of SeismoStruct, these are typical 6-DOFs nonlinear link elements with uncouples DOFs. We are not aware of the link elements in Sap2000, however the chances are that these are also similar.
