Modelling of Towers for Seismic Analysis#
Introduction#
Welcome to the Modelling of Towers for Seismic Analysis tutorial.
Skyscrapers that incorporate multiple towers or split-level configurations demand careful consideration when evaluating their seismic performance. Achieving a thorough and effective seismic assessment, grounded in storey-specific criteria, requires the organization of storeys into distinct entities, which we refer to as “Towers.”

Modelling in SOFiPLUS#
This section of the tutorial focuses on modelling of Towers with SOFiPLUS.
Note
In cases where it is necessary to assign identical storey elevations to multiple Towers, each with a distinct Designation, you can define multiple elevations with the same height in the Storey Elevation Dialog. Afterward, you can adjust the specific titles accordingly.
