Brick Masonry in SAP 2000
Brick Masonry in SAP 2000
(OP)
Can anyone please tell me how to model a masonry structure in SAP 2000? It would be very helpful. I need to perform static non-linear pushover analysis of a school building and retrofit it.

Alternatively you could model the masonry wall using the nonlinear layered shell element
