Introduction

The objective of this example is to demonstrate the use of variables in defining the OpenSees input.

While the structural model is the same, there are two lateral-load cases:

Input

Static Pushover


Dynamic EQ Ground Motion



Files

Run

  • To run Static Pushover analysis:
source Ex2a.Canti2D.ElasticElement.Push.tcl
  • To run EQ ground-motion analysis (BM68elc.acc needs to be downloaded into the same directory):
