Introduction

BuildingTcl is a library of Tcl procedures (commands) used to build a database for numerical simulation of building frames. Structural model, loading and analysis data are included in this database. Additional procedures are available to perform the numerical simulation using OpenSees. BuildingTclViewer is a Tcl/Tk widget (program) that provides a graphical user interface to view the BuildingTcl database, run the numerical simulations using OpenSees interactively, and view the results interactively.


BuildingTcl: Generate building-model data Generate analysis-model data Generate loading and load-combination data Generate OpenSees model of building Perform OpenSees numerical simulations Post-Process OpenSees recorder output into formatted data This library of procedures can be used within the OpenSees.exe or OpenSeesTk.exe programs

BuildingTclViewer: View the model/analysis/loading data generated by BuildingTcl View structural model graphically Perform numerical simulations using OpenSees interactively Monitor OpenSees simulation real-time Pause and/or stop OpenSees analysis real-time View simulation results interactively This library of procedures can be used within the OpenSeesTk.exe program.

[Tcl] is the scripting language used by OpenSees.exe. It runs on Windows, Unix and Macintosh platforms. Tk is the graphical user interface toolkit associated with Tcl.
