If the seismic motion is given at the outcrop, give as layer # the # of the bedrock and check outcropIn tab File you must save your fileeff/max (M-1)/10, where M = earthquake magnitudeNo. of iterations (810 are usually sufficient) SolutionSelect Solution managerSelect data fileSolutionResultsSelect Output managerResultsSelect file with analysis dataResultsCheck soil layers for which you want plot of ground motion (1 plot for all checked layers) If you want separate plots for each layer, check only one layer and repeat the procedure for the other layersCheck type of output data for plotsSelect PlotTab Ground Motion for time-histories of the motion at each layerResultsSelect Write data to file to save data for further processingSelect Return for more plotsResultsCheck soil layers for which you want response spectraSelect PlotTab Response spectrumResultsSelect Write data to file to save data for further processingSelect Return for more plotsResultsCheck soil layers for which you want plotCheck type of output data for plotsSelect PlotTab Depth Plots for distribution with depthResultsSelect Write data to file to save data for further processingSelect Return for more plots
