Where can the diaphragm accelerations be found for the Response Spectra in the output?
The diaphragm accelerations can be viewed under the Display menu>Set output table mode>displacements>press ‘select load case’>select the response spectrum load case>select diaphragm accelerations from the pull down menu. 4. Can you apply a torsional load on a specific point upon a rigid or flexible diaphragm? Currently, if you apply a torsional load on a point, it must be included in the rigid diaphragm or connected to the rest of the structure through a member. We are in the process of allowing an assembly of points to be declared as a flexible diaphragm for book keeping purposes in which case the torsional load will be distributed based upon certain rules.
