Hi dear i had the same problem in my thesis. But i was working pushover analysis with opensees. My structure was a 2d frame and had 3 bays.i think the best way is to run you analysis in university with powerful and puissant systems. You can't change your properties absolutely and even if you have a solution in etabs that you can be able to reduce time you should be wary the precetion of your results.

Nariman Abbasnezhad sir, I've sent you a few queries as messages few days back. Please check your messages. Thank you

Dear Aakash Gupta ,

The time taken for completing the pushover analysis depends on a number of factors such as the total degrees of freedom, the way material inelasticity is accounted for, inclusion of geometric nonlinearity effects etc. Since you are working with ETABS, I assume that you are using a lumped plasticity approach for nonlinear analysis. You may want to go through the hinge definitions to check if that is the source of time consumption. I would also suggest going through the nonlinear analysis properties to ensure that you are not using extremely low load increments which may be unwarranted.

Dear Gupta

Calculation time for pushover analysis in ETABS depends on the type of diaphragm, the number of degrees of freedom used in model and the convergence method.

Hi, you may check the unnecessary increments of material nonlinarity.

Dear Aakash

first, check the increments and then use Advanced SapFire Options.
