Base Isolation (LRB, Non-Linear vs. Linear input)
Base Isolation (LRB, Non-Linear vs. Linear input)
(OP)
I am performing a base isolation study for a SMRF using SAP2000. For the base isolation (Lead Rubber Bearings), I am trying to figure out when would I use Non-Linear input vs. Linear input when modeling the lead rubber bearings.
Appreciate your help.
