Abstract

The static non-linear analysis allows us to know the probable seismic performance that a structure will have, this by obtaining the resistant seismic capacity curve that relates the basal shear with the lateral displacement at the top of the building and not only that, but that the sections that enter the non-linear range are determined. This information is very useful for the Structural Designer who will be able to visualize if the performance that the building is going to have is in accordance with what he expected from his design, otherwise it is time to make corrections to his design, in this way it will be you are optimizing work.

For this reason, it was decided to write this work, which will undoubtedly be very useful for those students who decided to venture into nonlinear static analysis (Pushover), a rather complex subject if you want to know in depth the theory of calculus and not just program user.
