8A. ANALYSIS Part 1: NEW BUILDINGS

CHAPTER 8A 'ANALYSIS' 24 to save the parameters and close the dialog box. The analysis shall be carried out either by selecting the automatic procedure via the command , or the step-by-step procedure where the method is executed step by step with in the following order: Masses : Calculate the mass of each node of the analysed structure according to the equation G + ψ2 x Q. Point Po: Calculate the position of the trace of the plastic axis of the analysed structure at the level closest to 0.8 x H where H is its height. Bending levels : The orientation of the main bending planes of the analysed beam is calculated. Τ>1? : It is considered whether the eigenfrequency of the analysed beam exceeds unity in one or both of its main directions, in which case an additional horizontal force ΔH is calculated and added to its top level. Eccentricities : Calculate the Random and Static Eccentricities of the subject analysis of the carrier, the corresponding torsional moments are generated and procedure of the Simplified Spectral Method is completed. Observation: Added analysis check messages to the new version to avoid possible errors. The messages contain instructions and guidelines for the correct completion of the analysis.
