flat slab-column connection

Post by aenils »

Hi,

how do we model the flat slab column connection in the opensees?
we need to transfer the unbalance moment of the slab in to the column. how do we define the spring properties to transfer the unbalance moment. do we use same Ibarra Kwawinkler model for the extra spring?
let me know.
Thanks
