Dear gents,
I found a problem in dynamic seismic calculation using CII 5.2. I have created a static model with Z axis as vertical direction (in special execution parameters I have enabled Z-axis vertical option obviously). When I have created dynamic input I have considered in my mind also Z as vertical direction and therefore I have created related spectrum and also pseudostatic anchor movements with the same consideration. After run, I have noted that for displacements, CII inverts Y and Z displacements (see attached picture). Also dynamic plot shows Y vertical axis. So I wish to know, if only results need to be considered Y & Z inverted but calculation is correct or if dynamic input must be created as Y-Axis vertical direction also when static model have Z-axis vertical.
Thanks in advance
