Selecting the method of creating

combinations between directions –

on European market usually

Newmark combinations are used.

Specifying the type of

combinations between modes

(usually CQC) used for each

direction in combinations between

directions:

Basic workflow of seismic analysis using RSA

In case of using signed quadratic

combinations it will be necessary to

set main modes for each of

directions. Usually the main

criterion to select such modes is

their contribution to participation

mass for given direction - this

contribution can be checked in

Special issues in seismic analysis using RSA

Mass matrix types:

• Consistent (consistent matrix always with

regard to the rotational degrees of freedom)

• Lumped with rotations (diagonal matrix with

regard to rotational degrees of freedom)

• Lumped without rotations (diagonal matrix

without rotational degrees of freedom).

Special issues in seismic analysis using RSA

Mass matrix types:

If you use lumped masses then mass is

'assigned' to nodes existing in the structure.

The larger number of the intermediate nodes

along a beam you create the closer to the

reality you are and it increases the precision of

the solution. If you use the consistent mass

matrix the mass is distributed along a bar

element rather than assigned to the nodes.

Special issues in seismic analysis using RSA

Active mass direction:

You may need to deselect a direction when

performing the seismic analysis. If you deselect

the mass in the Z direction, for the modal

analysis that precedes the seismic case, it

eliminates local vertical vibration modes for

floor slabs. In the seismic analysis for such

model you will consider only transversal

vibrations.

Special issues in seismic analysis using RSA

Mass eccentricities:

The tensional effect is taken into account by

adding mass eccentricity. You can do this as

either modal analysis parameters (exact

method) or seismic analysis parameters

(simplified approach).
