Pushover [SIG]

To understand a structure's seismic capabilities, several methods exist. In the case of bridge engineering, for bridges with Seismic Design Categories C ,D, E and F Pushover Analysis or, alternatively, Nonlinear Static Procedure can be conducted.

The Moment-Curvature Report can be used to calculate data associated with OpenBrIM’s Pushover Analysis. The report outcome includes Hinge Property Data, which can be directly applied to the hinge properties of a section, as well as the cracked inertia values, both of which can be used for seismic analysis.

Additionally, hinge properties can be defined for seismic analysis in both Nonlinear and Linear cases.
