Hello all, My question on creating time history (TH) from a response spectrum (RS). STAADPro provides the TH for a given RS in the output file but there is no option to get this TH in the text format. I save the output file as a text file. The output file is with the page end comments in the end of every page. Every time I have to remove these lines from each page.
Is there an easier way to do it? Thanksamit
I believe, the best way is to get the TH on the top of a rigid single degree of freedom oscillator with the natural frequency of 1000Hz. This oscillator will replicate the ground motion as is. Then use the dynamic option and get the TH on the screen. From there it can be exported to an xl file.
