See Response Spectrum Code Function Definition Form for details about using the form. The parameters for this code are as follows:
The following parameters are input for the IBC2003 response spectrum function. Any positive, nonzero value can be input for these parameters.
SDS = The 5% damped design spectral response acceleration at short periods as specified in IBC2003 Section 1613.2.1.3.
SD1 = The 5% damped design spectral response acceleration at a one second period as specified in IBC2003 Section 1613.2.1.3.
The IBC2003 response spectrum function is based on the procedure described in IBC2003 Section 1613.2.1.4.
Access the Response Spectrum IBC 2003 Function Definition form as follows:
Click the Loads > Functions Type > Response Spectrum > Expand arrow command, or on the Bridge Wizard click the Response Spectrum Functions item and click the Define/Show Resp Spec Funcs. button, to display the Define Response Spectrum Functions form. Then do one of the following:
Alternatively, click the Loads > Functions Type > Time History > New command and select IBC 2003 from the resulting form.
