When analysing a structure with a time history, SAP2k does not show any output. No stresses or displacements caused by the time history (earthquake, elcentro) can be shown. However a response spectra analysis does give output. Also using timehistory traces, displacements of joints can be found. Please can someone help me with this problem. I really need the timehistory analysis.
 
Hi,
uing timehistory traces you can get also forces or stresses using 'Define function' button on timehistory traces dialog box, and select 'Add Joint Disp/Forces' or 'Add element Forces'.
