I agree with what Amir’s observation. Instead of defining rigid master slave connection, I would suggest you to use the rigid floor diaphragm command to model the diaphragms. This would require small...

Thanks for your suggestion, I will make the necessary changes to the model.

Another thing which I forgot to mention Instead of specifying DEC and ACC as 0, you should specify these as 1 and 0.05 respectively. Please refer to the section 5.32.12.2.1 for a more detailed...

Thanks, however I'm concerned with regards to the high nodal displacement in the model, which translates to a high story drift (drift limit exceeded in this case). Is there any method for me to control...

Actually, no. It's not as simple as that -I think you're talking about something other than my query. Not to worry anyway, because I found a solution to my problem. I just change the reference axis to...

The nodal displacements that you see in the postprocessing tables represent the total displacements of these nodes from its original position. For drift computation you would rather want to know the...

My guess is that your TRACK parameter is getting added after the CHECK CODE ALL command. I checked the workaround on your model and it seems to generate non zero values for MNY and MNZ for member 22. I...

Yes, that was the problem, I was placing the TRACK parameter after CHECK CODE. Everything appears to be displaying correctly in the output file. Thank you for your help.

The program is not displaying the design moment capacities (MNZ and MNY )for steel members. Some bracing members are showing no compressive (PNC) strength as well. This problem started after our...
