How to plot Vertical Displacement vs. Percent of Load Diagram?

How to plot Vertical Displacement vs. Percent of Load Diagram?

(OP)
In SAP2000, how do I get a graph like following? I do not mind to plot this graph point by point in a spreadsheet, but I do not know how to get the percent of the full load data. Thanks.

RE: How to plot Vertical Displacement vs. Percent of Load Diagram?

You can make several load combinations, with different types of load percentages. For example:

LOAD COMBINATION 1: 0.10 x DEAD LOADS
LOAD COMBINATION 2: 0.20 x DEAD LOADS

Representing, 10 and 20% of the dead load. Best regards,

Sebastian

Thank you very much, Sebivaq. That's what I did. I do not know if there is an easier way.
