How
can I use push-over analysis after analyzing the construction stages? In such a way that the effects of the construction stages are included in the analysis of the push-over?
Because the software does not consider the effects with and without considering the construction stages in the pushover analysis. And the capacity curve in pushover is the same in both cases
Hi Amir, did we get a reply on this one? I’m doing a pushover analysis on a balanced cantilever bridge and the axial load on the piers is different when considering the CSM from just using the self-weight. The compression level does affect the plastic hinges’ capacity. How can we consider the actual axial force from the CSM in the pushover analysis?
