8B. ANALYSIS PART 2

CHAPTER 8B 'ANALYSIS' 76 The process shown in the above window includes 3 steps: • Definition of the parameters of the analysis. • Calculation of the masses and stiffnesses of the members of the carrier. • Perform dynamic analysis for the selected accelerograms. Steps 2 and 3 are performed either sequentially by selecting one by one the keys, "Masses - Rigidities" and "Time History", or automatically by selecting the "Automatic Process" button. Select to create the detailed results file in the study analysis folder. The first step in the process that precedes the analysis is the definition of its parameters. The definition of the parameters is done through the following window of the SCADA Pro application: The implementation of linear dynamic analysis with time histories in SCADA Pro starts with the definition of the Analysis Scenarios for the current construction design regulations implemented in SCADA Pro (e.g. EC8, CEE 2012).
