hello,
can anyone tell me how to extract support reactions with sign (+/-) in a response spectrum model.
For example, primary load case has SL+x. The civil designer needs SL-X, but since response spectrum load case uses modal super position, my values are absolute values.
so if i give a combination having -1 as a factor for seismic load +X case, my reaction is all in negative.
can anyone help!
thanks
