Multi-Storey Stages

This video describes the multi-storey stages option which automates the creation of construction stages.  

Moving Load

Moving Load

Moving Load option to generate a series of load cases where the load is offset by a constant increment relative to the previous case.

Space Shell

A hemispherical shell with an opening at its top is loaded with point loads along its edge. As the geometry and loading are symmetrical, only one-quarter of the shell is modeled.

Seismic Analysis

The aim of the seismic analysis is to calculate the reaction of the model to earthquakes. This example describes the method to analyze the structure using Modal Analysis. Modal Analysis is the accepted method and is recommended by most design codes. The reaction of the model for each mode shape is calculated according to the response spectrum given by the seismic code.
