Hi
I have to make the comparison of results from Robot (using various types of analysis) and my own calculations (based of matrix displacement method). I had no problem with seismic analysis but when I want use equivalent lateral force method seismic analysis there were some complications. I have tried in many ways but I still get the same communique when I run analysis: "There are no nodes in the floor planes. It is impossible to apply forces for the static seismic analysis case."
I will be very gratefull if someone could tell me what I'm doing wrong.
