Linear Dynamic Analysis Methods per ASCE 7-16 with ideCAD

How does ideCAD perform linear dynamic analysis methods, according to ASCE 7-16?

• Among the linear dynamic analysis methods, the Modal Response Spectra Analysis or the Linear Time-History Analysis method can be selected by users.

• Seismic calculation is made automatically according to the selected modal calculation method.

Modal Analysis Methods based on the modal behavior of the structural system under earthquake effect are the computational Modal Response Spectra Analysis and the linear time-history analysis.
