Methodology for Time History Wind Analysis in SAP۲۰۰۰: A Case Study on Three-Span Warehouse

This paper presents a methodology for conducting time history wind analysis in the sap۲۰۰۰ software. Wind loads are a complex, dynamic, and random phenomenon that has caused more damage and losses to structures than earthquakes in many countries. Wind loads' high complexity and dynamic nature increase the importance of conducting time history wind analysis. The methodology presented in this study includes the complete modelling process of a three-span warehouse in SAP۲۰۰۰ software and the procedure for generating wind turbulence records and implementing them in the software. The wind turbulence records are generated using the wind turbulence record generation tool available on the vortex-winds.org website. The generated wind turbulence records are defined in the sap۲۰۰۰ software as a series of time histories of wind loads acting on the structure. The methodology can be used as a guideline for conducting time history wind analysis in SAP۲۰۰۰ software and improving the resilience of structures against wind loads.
