Push-over Analysis
Push-over Analysis
(OP)
Dear friends,
I am just starting my study in structural engineering and feel interested to learn about push-over analysis.
I will be very helpful if there could be a sample analysis calculations just for proper guidance.

RE: Push-over Analysis
It's a consequence of loading a system into the plastic region and the residual stresses left when unloaded can cause a premature failure of the system with a different loading pattern.
When I mentioned that it may be a bit beyond you, I wasn't trying to discourage you. There are a lot of engineers in this forum that don't use plastic design for steel or concrete. Designing based on collapse mechanisms is not everyone's cuppa... Best you get a grasp on regular structural engineering, first. I've been using plastic design, off and on depending on the project, for over 45 years and I think it's great.

Again, I appropriate your help and am inspired to hear that you have used it for that long.

Like many things, once you have an initial understanding things fall quickly in place.

To what height is the applicability of Push-over method?
It seems that it is limited to certain height and geometry.
