Hello everyone, Conciser we want to model a 3D frame with different type of lateral-load-resisting structural system in different directions (for example moment-resistant frame in X-dir and shear wall with frame in Y-dir). 1.How can we distinguish the principal period of frame in different direction...

Hi everyone,

I want to print output of a file in metric unite, Now consider most of unite in main model define in metric unite and I want to use a source tcl file that made in another (engineering) units,How can I use the source file in main file that finally output print in metric units?

Dear Saharnaz; I want to monitoring the rotation of hing in RC frame, Could you tell me How can i record this parameter? I want to generate a 2D Rc frame with element beamwithhing? Could you send me an approach for generation frame use as beamwithhing elements or use another approach to moitor rotat...

Dear Prof.Mckenna,

Tanks for your helpful guide.
I will check the example.

ِDear Prof.Mckenna Thanks for your help. Could you explain more about How to assign a presser-time and what's your mean about "lace it inside the load pattern." on the element? Could you send me an example that assign force-time history load pattern to a node or element in top stories? Best,

Hi everyone,

How can I assign Load pattern with presser-time or force-time history to a significant node in story level?

and, is it possible to assign load pattern with force-time history to a beam element?

HI everyone,

when I insert lot of number for example a list of displacement for running a cyclic analyze , I need a large space in TCL,Now How can I insert data in several lines?

Dear gor and tino,

Thank you for your answer, I modeled a three story 2D RC frame with concrete01 and steel02 material and nonlinearBeamColumn element.

Hi everyone,
How can I concept Strength degradation in my RC model?

Dear all,
How can I define a nonlinearBeamColumn with 2 different section?

Dear mgrubisic,
Thanks for your guide,And cyclic analysis (Displacement control) is needed to define a lateral load pattern or not?

Dear MohsenShani,
Thanks for your guide, I used your code but could you explain about n parameter?
