Users can use the program, together with a spreadsheet program like MS Excel, to create hundreds or thousands of SeismoStruct input files very quickly without the need for any programming skill. The ‘SPF Creator’ program has been included in the installation. The list with FRP wraps suppliers has been enrichedģ.
Ability to immediately send the model to Seismosoft, in the case of convergence difficulties, so that it is debugged by our team of specialists in nonlinear analysis (for commercial users only)Ģ. Several changes to enable easier convergence, including (i) a new convergence criterion with adaptable norm, and (ii) the display in the Post-Processor of the members or locations, where the convergence problems are caused, a feature that enables the easy identification of the members that lead to the convergence difficulties General updatesġ.
Ability to display the plastic hinge locations and the locations of damage in the Deformed Shape Viewer of the Post-ProcessorĢ. If ρ becomes smaller than the limits ρmin & ρmax, as proposed by the selected Standard, the reinforcement ratio is displayed with red, in order to warn the users New post-processing featuresġ. The reinforcement ratio ρ is now shown on the member’s Properties Window of the Building Modeller. Ability to select the Control Node at different locations of the building, when creating the model from the Building Modellerħ. Rotate and move the model features in the Building ModellerĦ.

Ability to add a slab by identifying its perimeter with a series of mouse clicksĥ. The feature is similar to MS Word’s Format PainterĤ. Copy Member Properties feature, which enables the copying and pasting of the properties of a member to another member with a single click. reinforcement, materials, FRP wraps, advanced member properties etc.) of several members at onceģ. New feature giving the opportunity to change simultaneously particular parameters (e.g. Ability to create and print tables with all the members and their properties in the Building Modeller this is ideal for the final checks of the structural configurationĢ. New features in the Building Modeller facilityġ.
#SEISMOSIGNAL MANUAL PDF CODE#
Support for American Code for Seismic Evaluation and Retrofit of Existing Buildings (ASCE 41-13), Italian National Seismic Code (NTC-18) and Turkish Seismic Evaluation Building Code (TBDY). Three new material steel models, Ramberg-Osgood steel model, Giuffre-Menegotto-Pinto steel model and bilinear steel model with isotropic strain hardeningĤ. Thirty nine new sections: (i) five RC sections (ii) twenty four steel sections, most of which are compound steel sections, and (iii) ten jacketed RC sectionsģ. Four new response curves to be used with the program’s link elements: (i) Modified Ibarra-Medina-Krawinkler model with bilinear hysteretic response, (ii) Modified Ibarra-Medina-Krawinkler model with peak-oriented hysteretic response and (iii) Modified Ibarra-Medina-Krawinkler model with pinched hysteretic response, and (iv) a new general asymmetric curve with high pinchingĢ. New response curves, section types, material models and Structural Codesġ. Support for National Annexes for Eurocodes.Six new material models: (i) one steel model – Buckling Restrained Brace Steel, (ii) two concrete material models – Engineered Cementitious Composites material and Kent-Scott-Park material model, (iii) two materials for masonry – Trilinear masonry model and Parabolic masonry model and (iv) one general material – Generic Hysteretic model.Three new sections: (i) one cruciform steel section and (ii) two sections for (reinforced or unreinforced) masonry.Eight new response curves to be used with the program’s link elements: (i) Quadrilinear symmetric curve, (ii) Quadrilinear asymmetric curve, (iii) Viscous Damper response curve, (iv) Bouc Wen curve, (v) Elastic-Perfectly plastic Gap curve, (vi) Impact response curve, (vii) Self Centering Brace response curve and (viii) Generic Hysteretic curve characterised by pinching effect.
