Introduction

GiD SAP2000 problemtype is an interface between GiD and the SAP2000 structural solver.

This interface let the software GiD users make the process for creating complex geometry numerical models, after of doing this it will be possible export the model to Sap2000 software for analyzing. The users have the decision for revising the results into Sap200 or come back to GiD, but it will be necessary to use the interface for visualizing the results. Moreover, this interface has an additional option that allows the users to create a reality virtual file (VRML) with a result of GiD postprocess.

Note: The calculation program SAP2000 itself is not included in this problemtype. The interface was tested with SAP2000 v 15.0.0

The interface customize GiD to allow:
