SAP2000 Detailed Tutorial Including Pushover Analysis

This tutorial is quite detailed. It is intended to introduce and demonstrate many of the capabilites of SAP2000. Because we are trying to demonstrate as many different capabilities as reasonable, the example problem is not necessarily created and the results are not necessarily reviewed in the most efficient and expedient manner. Often with computer programs, what is efficient for one person may not be the best method for the next person. It is assumed that once introduced to the SAP2000 capabilities and methods in this tutorial, users will decide which methods work best for them in their particular
circumstances.

The recent advent of performance based design has brought the nonlinear static pushover analysis procedure to the forefront. Pushover analysis is a static, nonlinear procedure in which the magnitude of the structural loading is incrementally increased in accordance with a certain predefined pattern.

Preface
The Metals Handbook Desk Edition is intended to serve as a comprehensive single-volume reference source on the properties, selection, processing, testing, and characterization of metals and their alloys. Although the information presented in this Volume is drawn principally from the 20 volumes of the ASM Handbook series, it should not be considered simply an abridged version of the larger work. Instead, the Metals Handbook Desk Edition draws upon the complete arsenal of ASM products--both print and electronic--as well as other key sources of information originating from other publications, company literature, technical societies, and government agencies.
Volume Content
Because of the familiarity, success, and ease-of-use of the original Desk Edition published in 1984, it was determined from the outset of the project that the editorial approach and outline for the new edition should follow in a similar manner.
The challenge in successfully revising the first edition was to determine what strategic additions (or reductions) and improvements should be made. Complicating this task was the fact that a complete edition cycle of the ASM Handbook (including completely new volumes on corrosion, tribology, materials characterization, and other topics) had been published since the earlier edition was produced. To ensure that the best product possible resulted from the revision/updating process, a 12-member Editorial Advisory Board representing industry, academia, and research laboratories was formed. All board members have been key contributors to the Handbook series or have been involved with other important ASM activities over the past decade. Under their guidance, an outline was established for the second edition that divided the book into five major parts: General Information; Irons, Steels, and High-Performance Alloys; Nonferrous Alloys and Special-Purpose Materials; Processing; and Testing, Inspection, and Materials Characterization.
General Information contains a glossary of more than 3000 terms, a collection of common engineering tables, and graphs
comparing properties of metals and nonmetals. It also includes contributions on crystal structure, practical uses of phase diagrams, engineering design, and factors to be considered in the materials selection process.
Irons, Steels, and High-Performance Alloys. Emphasis is placed on properties and selection of ferrous alloys and heatresistant superalloys. Important relationships between structure and properties in irons and steels are described. The effects of modern steelmaking practices on properties are examined, as is the influence of improved melting/refining methods on superalloy performance. New or expanded information is presented on austempered ductile irons, highstrength low-alloy steels, stainless steels(including duplex stainless steels), and powder metallurgy steels.
Nonferrous Alloys and Special-Purpose Materials comprises 14 major sections that describe the properties and selection of
conventional (structural) nonferrous alloys and materials used for such special-purpose applications as magnetic or electrical devices, biomedical devices, and advanced aircraft/aerospace components. Metal-matrix composites and structural intermetallics--more recently developed materials not covered in the previous Desk Edition--are also described.
Processing. Processes extending through the entire life-cycle of a component are described, including extractive metallurgy, casting, forming, heat treatment, joining, surface cleaning, finishing and coating, and recycling. An entirely new section on powder metallurgy has also been added. The increased coverage of recycling technology reflects the response of the metals industry to environmental concerns.
Testing, Inspection, and Materials Characterization. In addition to offering information on failure analysis, fractography, nondestructive testing, mechanical testing, and metallography, a new section describes in practical terms the selection of characterization methods for bulk elemental analysis, bulk microstructural analysis, and surface analysis. New information on wear testing and tests for evaluating stress-corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement is also presented.

Significance of Tests and Properties of Concrete and Concrete-Making Materials
Joseph Lamond; James Peilert,
ASTM International
2006
ISBN: 0803133677
661 pages
PDF 7,1 MB
Reflects a decade of technological changes in concrete industry! The newest edition of this popular ASTM publication reflects the latest technology in concrete and concrete-making materials. Six sections cover: (1) General information on the nature of concrete, sampling, variability, and testing laboratories. A new chapter deals with modeling cement and concrete properties. (2) Properties of freshly mixed concrete. (3) Properties of hardened concrete. (4) Concrete aggregates—this section has been revised and the chapters are presented in the order that most concerns concrete users: grading, density, soundness, degradation resistance, petrographic examination, reactivity, and thermal properties. (5) Materials other than aggregates—the chapter on curing materials now reflects the current technology of materials applied to new concrete surfaces. The chapter on mineral admixtures has been separated into two chapters: supplementary cementitious materials and ground slag. (6) Specialized concretes—contains a new chapter on self-consolidating concrete
