Certain seismic codes require the fulfilment of the minimum base shear condition when applying the modal-spectral dynamic method for the analysis of the seismic action.
As of version 2025.d, the possibility of activating this check, already implemented in previous versions of CYPECAD, is also available in CYPE 3D.
