Hi everyone,
I am trying to calibrate my experimental curve using SAP2000. The experiment was worked on a concrete single-bay single-story bare frame. I designed cross sections using Section Designer, and then I chose FIber P-M2-M3 Hinges, because there is an axial force in columns. The problem is that the curves are very different. The strength is much greater in the numerical curve from SAP2000 than in the experimental one, and the stiffnesses also differ. Are there any parameters I should change, for example nonlinear material data etc..?
You can send me some example of pushover analysis using Fiber P-M2-M3 Hinges.
