DEFINING LOAD PATTERNS FOR PUSHOVER ANALYSIS IN ETABS/SAP2000

#CivilSAC
Defining the load pattern for doing pushover analysis is very important. In this, I have described how to define different load patterns for pushover analysis.

thanks bro.. i was always confused in defining lateral load pattern for PA.. THANKS A LOT..

[@jayshah6293]

Make video on perform pushover ananlysis is sap2000..... please..... idk procedure...tell me if you know procedure

[@CivilSAC]

I will to upload a video as soon as possible.

Which of the three types of loads should we use and why?

[@CivilSAC]

It mainly depends on your design code that you are using. ASCE 41-17 recommends fundamental mode load pattern for nonlinear static procedures.

[@amrmasoud5580]

why you consider 2 modes( mode 1 & 4)) in pushover load case?

[@CivilSAC]

It was only for illustration purposes. You can any mode for doing pushover but generally, the fundamental mode is used for buildings not having higher modes effect.

How can we calculate the monitored displacement in sap2000 or etabs in the pushover analysis

[@CivilSAC]

You have to assign a particular value of displacement at a node. The displacement of this node is called monitored displacement.

@@CivilSAC yes I know that, but my question which value should I assign, any reference to calculate it?!

[@CivilSAC]

@@alialheneiti4267 You can use any value according to your code or any other reference.

[@alialheneiti4267]

@@CivilSAC thanks bro, but if you can tell me any reference to calculate it I would be appreciated

@@alialheneiti4267 You can use IS1893, Fema 356, and any other code according to your work requirement.
