Using PEER data in SAP2000

Using PEER data in SAP2000

Using PEER data in SAP2000

(OP)
Hi,

I have this doubt regarding using PEER data in SAP2000.

I downloaded unscaled and scaled earthquake records from the PEER database, but I am not able to run time history analysis on my bridge model as the progra shows an error whenever I try to load the data which I downloaded. The data was in AT2 format which I changed into .txt format and .th format, but neither of them worked.

Please can i get some help regarding this issue?

Thanks

RE: Using PEER data in SAP2000

I encountered same problem today and i found a simple solution. Perhaps it is to late for you @klntejaswi, but maybe someone else will need to know how peer database files can be imported if you have problems with multiple column database file.

First you will need some kind of text editor. (Notepad will not do.) I recommend Notepad++. http://notepad-plus-plus.org/
Open you *.at2 file with Notepad++ and click on View -> Show Symbols -> Show all characters.
End the end of each line you should see CR LF. If so you are good and there is nothing to change.
If you only see symbol LF, we have to fix this.
Press CTRL+H and in 'search mode' select Extended.
Then in field 'Find what' type: \n
And in field 'Replace with' type: \r\n
Clik Replace All and save file.

This should fix your problem.
