EX. UK-22 Time History Analysis for Sinusoidal Loading
A space frame structure is subjected to a sinusoidal (dynamic) loading. The commands necessary to describe the sine function are demonstrated in this example. Time History analysis is performed on this model.
This problem is installed with the program by default to C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\STAAD.Pro 2023\Samples\Sample Models\UK\UK-22 Time History Analysis for Sinusoidal Loading.STD when you install the program.
