Dear Sir,
I have a problem in using minmax material, I can’t define the min & max values that I can use to get failure in the material after a certain strain. I used:
uniaxial material concrete01 1 -2500 -.002 -2800 -0.01
uniaxial material concrete01 2 -2500 -.002 0 -0.005
uniaxial material steel01 3 35153 20389019 0.01
Would you please tell me what are the recommended min values and max values for both concrete and steel materials? Why did you recommend these values? (Please explain).
i need some help

Dear ,
Sorry my question wasn’t clear
The problem is:
1)I am using the minmax material and I want to know what do min and max words represent in this code.
uniaxialMaterial MinMax 4 1 min – max -
2) Are there any constraints for the min and max values used in the minmax material due to the definition of the material properties in the opensees code.
Material properties:
tag f'c ec0 f'cu ecu
Uniaxial material co ncrete01 1 -2500 -.002 -2800 -.01
