Reglamento Colombiano de Construcción Sismo Resistente (2010). This code was already implemented in CYPECAD and Metal 3D as of previous versions. Now, for the 2014.d version, CYPECAD has two options to indicate the value of the Fundamental period of the structure (used to calculate the base shear): More information on how to establish the Fundamental period of the structure.

Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures. Implemented in CYPECAD and Metal 3D. Users can choose to CYPECAD carry out the dynamic analysis (modal spectral) or static analysis (equivalent lateral force) proposed by the ASCE 7-10 design code. The analysis method (dynamic or static) is selected using the Analysis method option within the dialogue box where seismic action is defined. When the dynamic […]

Construcciones sismo resistentes. Requisitos básicos para el diseño y construcción. This code was already implemented in CYPECAD and Metal 3D as of previous versions using the dynamic analysis (modal spectral) method. For this design code, the 2014.d version of CYPECAD includes: More information on the correction due to base shear carried out by CYPECAD. More information on how to establish the […]

When an analysis is carried out in CYPECAD using any of the indicated seismic design codes, combined with Eurocode 2 (EU), Eurocode 2 (France) and Eurocode 2 (Portugal), the program takes into account the reinforcement ductility criteria and the capacity design criteria for seismic design of the selected seismic code. These criteria are justified in the Ultimate Limit State […]

These codes were already implemented as of previous versions. They were also included, in previous versions, in the group of codes which use CYPECAD’s advanced beam editor (which implies that as well as the advantages obtained from using this editor, detailed Ultimate Limit State reports and reinforcement tables can be automatically generated). Now, as of […]

Projeto de estruturas de concreto - Procedimento. This document is a project revision of the ABNT NBR 6118 2007 code, which is currently not in force, however it is foreseen that it will substitute the current standard. It has been implemented in CYPECAD (including Strut3D) and Metal 3D.

CYPECAD allows users to define the Fundamental period of the structure (used to calculate the base shear) in two ways: Either of the two options can be selected in the section Estimation of the fundamental period of the structure within the Code for the calculation of seismic loading dialogue box (General data ˃ Select “with seismic loading” from the […]

Normas Argentinas para Construcción Sismorresistente. Parte II: Construcciones de Hormigón Armado. This code was already implemented in CYPECAD as of the 2013.l version in order to be able to use the Reinforcement ductility criteria and the Capacity design criteria for seismic design which are to be used with the concrete code: CIRSOC 201-2005 (Reglamento Argentino de Estructuras de Hormigón). Now, for the 2014.c version, the […]

These codes were already implemented in CYPECAD and Metal 3D as of previous versions. Now, in the 2014.c version, CYPECAD offers two options to indicate the value of the Fundamental period of the structure (used to calculate the base shear): More information can be found in the section on: “Seismic analysis. Fundamental period of the structure with user […]

СТРОИТЕЛЬСТВО В СЕЙСМИЧЕСКИХ РАЙОНАХ. Актуализированная редакция Construction in seismic regions. Updated edition Implemented in CYPECAD and Metal 3D.

Normas Argentinas para Construcción Sismorresistente. Parte II: Construcciones de Hormigón Armado. The reinforcement ductility criteria and the capacity design criteria for seismic design indicated in CIRSOC-103 2005 were implemented in the 2013.l version. These criteria are applied in CYPECAD when users select CIRSOC 201-2005 and combine it with CIRSOC 103-1991 or CIRSOC 103-2008. Now, as of the 2014.b version and to […]

Código Hondureño de la Construcción. Normas Técnicas. Capítulo 1. Cargas y fuerzas estructurales. Diseño por Sismo Implemented in CYPECAD and Metal 3D. The dynamic analysis method (spectral modal) or static analysis method (equivalent lateral force) proposed by the CHOC-08 can be selected in both programs. The analysis method (dynamic or static) can be selected using the Analysis method option in the dialogue box in […]
