Function
- Check the deformations of inelastic hinges (Lumped, Distributed, Spring, and Truss Type) resulting from the time history analysis with the time step, in a spreadsheet format table.
- Table Tool in midas Civil offers a variety of powerful built-in functions. Refer to Usage of Table Tool for detail directions:
Call
From the main menu, select [Results] tab > [Type : Time History Analysis] > [Table] group > [Result Tables] > [Inelastic Hinge] > [Deformation]
Input
When the Deformation function is executed, the "Records Activation Dialog" is called. Here, you select the load conditions and then click the OK button.
Refer to Results Table of "Usage of Table Tool" for the usage of Records Activation Dialog.
Refer to the usage of Table Tool and check the following data.

Load : Time history load case
Deformation : Maximum deformation till the analysis time elapses
Time : Time at which the maximum deformation occurs
