Input of data

Select Input manager

EduShake
Input of soil data

In tab Profile give the data of each soil stratum and the G/Gmax and damping relationships

Input of soil data

Project title

Depth of water table No. of layers = total number of layers + 1 for the bedrock

EduShake
Input data for each soil layer

Name of soil layer G/Gmax & damping relationships Data for each soil layer

No. of soil layer

In tab Select output you define the parameters that will be calculated for each layer

EduShake
Input data for each soil layer

Tick if the top of the layer is on the outcrop Define the damping values for which response spectra will be calculated

Input of earthquake data

In tab Input motion give the data for the seismic motion

EduShake
Input of earthquake data
In tab File you must save your file No. of seismic motions eff/max (M-1)/10, where M = earthquake magnitude No. of iterations (810 are usually sufficient)
