Geometric nonlinearity
Two ways to include P-Delta effects
Create static nonlinear case for each load
combination
Only for static analysis
Create initial P-Delta for anticipated gravity loads
Use modified stiffness from this for all analysis
Can be used for modal, static, and dynamic analysis

Local axis
Local axis 1 is always the longitudinal axis

The default orientation of the local 2 and


3 axes is determined by the relationship
between the local 1 axis and the global Z
axis:
The local 1-2 plane is taken to be vertical,
i.e., parallel to the Z axis
The local 2 axis is taken to have an
upward (+Z) sense unless the element is
vertical, in which case the local 2 axis is
taken to be horizontal along the global +X
direction
The local 3 axis is always horizontal, i.e.,
it lies in the X-Y plane
