    Line springs

    Is it possible to read the reactions of frame line springs in force per unit length, instead of force per joint? How?

    Warping torsion, *.PRO files, Material nonlinearity, API

    Thanks for the answers. However I still have a problem with 3: As an example, I have a simple model of a beam on 3 supports. The material is defined as nonlinear and a nonlinear static analysis case is defined as well. The maximum moment that that beam can take is about 100 KNm, while the...

    Warping torsion, *.PRO files, Material nonlinearity, API

    A few elementary questions: 1. When SAP2000 analyses a beam (frame element) in torsion, does it consider the warping torsion? I haven’t found the warping constant among the frame section properties. 2. Is it possible to create *.PRO files, or the only *.PRO files available are those supplied...

    Units by default when starting sap 2000

    How can one change the default units when starting Sap 2000? In earlier versions, the set of the default units was determined in the file sap2000.ini, but since the 8th version, (if I’m not wrong), it is no longer the case.
