Assign different ground motions to specific nodes in SAP2000

Assign different ground motions to specific nodes in SAP2000

(OP)
Hi,

I was wondering if it was possible to select nodes to input different ground motions in SAP2000. From what I understand, SAP2000 inputs the ground motion only at ground joints. However, I am looking at a building with a basement and would like to account for the fact that the ground motion will be different along the depth of the basement. Anyone know if it is possible?

Thanks
