It is also possible to merge changes to a Tekla Structures model to an existing SAP2000 or ETABS model. Nonlinear time-history analyses can be chained together with other nonlinear cases (including staged construction) addressing a wide range of applications. Joints may also be added manually to capture localized behavior, or to simulate restraint supports. in dynamic analyses, and for calculating the built-in acceleration
This linear type of analysis uses response-spectrum ground-acceleration records based on the seismic load and site conditions, rather than time-history ground motion records. Step 2. Use the Define menu > Mass Source command to access the Mass Source form to specify how SAP2000 should calculate mass for the model.
