Problem

How to get support reactions for Spectral Earthquake analysis?

Solution

In Spectral Earthquake analysis, you will generate the static + seismic common solution file (dyrcsf) as an output.

You will then need to run post processing - code check which using post input file and dyrcsf as the input.

Since spectral earthquake results are valid only at the joints of the structure, it is recommended that the JO option is used in columns 27-28 of the OPTIONS line in the post input file when generating the static solution file.
