Response spectrum earthquake analysis

This example is about earthquake response spectrum analysis and member/joint code checking in GeniE. It is recommended to use GeniE 8.12-2 and Sestra 10.19-00.

This example includes:

• Running static analysis to analyze the structure for static loads, to generate Static_R1.SIN
• Running eigenvalue analysis twice:
  • First run with the option "Mass Matrix", to generate M1.SIF
  • Second run without the option "Mass Matrix", to generate Eigen_R1.SIN
• Running earthquake analysis to generate earthquake load case and combined with static load cases
• Performing member and joint code checking with the earthquake load combinations

All above steps are executed in the single GeniE workspace. The ZIP file contains the starting and finished GeniE model.

This example demonstrates how to run an earthquake analysis within Sesam Manager.

The steps include:

• Export T1.FEM file and L1.FEM file used in static and eigenvalue analysis (GeniE, Wajac)
• Run static analysis, export results file (Sestra)
• Run eigenvalue analysis, export results file (Sestra)
• Merge results file (Prepost)
• Run earthquake analysis and perform code check (Framework)

Import the ZIP file into a new Sesam Manager job.
