acceleratin the Loading of seismic displacement

[faisal.aaouatif]

Good Morning / Evening

I m wondering if there is a way to accelerate the loading of seismic diplacement on the stories tables.

i takes a lot of time with relative big models ...

thank you

I do not think so but please send us your model to look at

Hi Please find below the link ( Model without the _RT extension )

http://we.tl/5l5mvvvaDA

i was trying to use API to extract values of displacement DrUx, DrUy for all stories , it takes about 10 min ...

i was wondering if its normal for this size of model.

i was wondering also , if RSA does the calculation of these values before ( in order to display them instantly ) of after asking for them in the storie table.

Thank you

Confirm please : Are we talking about API or Stories table in Robot?

[Rafal.Gaweda]

API.
Keep in mind to look at +/- code combination cases - results the same like in robot table.
Results for code combinations main cases ULS, SLS, ACC in stories by API returns results for different component than presented in table in robot.
Speed with seismic - questionable.

Sorry for delay

lets say that it takes much more time using API that RSA

what im using on my program is something like that :

Données_MSP_x_NIVEAUX(1).dr1 = Résultats_Etages.Displacements(1, Caractéristique_Séisme_X.numéro).DrUX

please make verification by your side.

Another questions please :

1. can I access to the displacements (or any other values) directly by using tables on RSA ?

2.How displacements of a storie are calculated ?

Thank you.

Yes I know, It is being investigated

1. can I access to the displacements (or any other values) directly by using tables on RSA ?

????

Do you mean opening table, saving to csv - possible by API to save to txt , not csv

Hi

By Point 1 , I meant if there any possibility to get a given value on a table by affording row and a column number ( something like for the 5th ligne ( which match to a floor 5 ) , take the value of the 6 column ( which correpond to Drx .. )

Thank you

[Rafal.Gaweda]

No.

[faisal.aaouatif]

ok

Thank you
