How to define material nonlinearity on Sap2000 to use Pushover analysis

How to define material nonlinearity on Sap2000 to use Pushover analysis

How to define material nonlinearity on Sap2000 to use Pushover analysis

(OP)
Dear all
I am going to model a simple concrete frame on sap2000 then design it then use nonlinear static analysis (Pushover)
Therefore, my question is how can I define material nonlinearity of concrete, rebar and know when the material will crush or inter in nonlinear stage??!!

I can see nonlinear material data on sap2000

For concrete, should I modify (stress-strain data, F’c, Ultimate unconfined strain capacity, Final compression slope)?

For rebar, should I modify (strain at onset strain hardening, ultimate strain capacity, Final Slope)?
In addition, where will i find the values of (Fy, Fu, Fye, Fue)

Is there any document I can read?

Thanks…
