jOINT DISPLACEMETS TOO BIG..

(OP)
Hi! I use SAP 2000 Educational v.8.27. After I make the analysis of a 3 levels reinforced concrete  frame structure, I obtain maximum joint displacements about 1.2m..?!?!?!? How can it be possible?
I mention that these maximum displacements apear only in the case COMBO. COMBO is defined as:DL*1.4+LL*1.1+accelerograme*1.
Also, in the MODAL analysis case, I obtain maximum displacemets about 0.14m.
So, what shoul I do? I want to see the maximum displacemets in the combination case, not only in the MODAL case or DL case or LL case.
