In an article on “Use of Signed response quantities in Response Spectrum Analysis –
A Case Study “ by Mr. Sanjib Das Product Specialist, Bentley Systems it was stated that Instead of using the usual process, designers can use the Signed Response Spectrum results. Designers can use the relevant command to instruct the program to use the sign of the member forces in Response Spectrum results for the most dominant mode - where the mass participation is the highest among all the considered modes in the analysis.
Is it possible to know how to initiate the Relevant command in the program?
Is it possible to put the dimension of the plan in detail so that it can be tried by the Staadpro users and learn by verifying the results?
It will be highly appreciated if this is posted.
