8B. ANALYSIS PART 2

CHAPTER 8B 'ANALYSIS' 45 With the EC-8_Greek Elastic script active , • The Run command opens the window for running the script and by pressing Update Data , the commands are activated: The process is executed sequentially, either automatically with the Automatic Process or selectively by choosing the keys one by one. In summary, the procedure is carried out as follows: • Calculation of masses and stiffnesses. • Performing a static analysis to calculate the intensities of permanent and mobile loads required to start the successive analyses of the pushover. • Performing a corresponding dynamic with the EC8 elastic design spectrum to calculate the eigenmodes and target displacement. • Performance of Pushover analyses Before performing the procedure, the value of the coefficient of the mobile loads ψ2 must be set. The default value is ψ2=0.30.
