I used section designer and FEMA356 to define the plastic hinges properties, with the absence of the reference to define the rotation in columns as per define m3 for beams…
How can define p-m3 hinges of columns in SAP2000??
Now I have the moment-curvature relationship for the columns from the section designer, also I have the acceptance criteria for nonlinear procedures RC columns from FEMA...How can use these parameters to define the p-m3 hinges in sap2000????
Al Mouayed Bellah Nafeh Thank you for your help...I know how to define the M3 hinges for beam because I can define the rotation reference for other points as shown in the pdf file, but there is no reference point for rotation to define P-M3 hinges?? this is the problem...
