For a detailed description of storey results and their usage, see the following pages:
The service “Summary Storey Results” provides results directly produced by the IRS analysis (see Reduced analysis model ). At this time, this service is dedicated to result output for the seismic analysis of buildings. It provides single results per storey, such as mass, position of mass center, displacement, acceleration…
Summary storey results are available only when the reduced modal analysis is enabled and storey are defined.
Types of results:
|
For mass combinations |
Storey data: mass & mass center of each storey Displacements of storey mass center per mode Accelerations of storey mass center per mode |
|
Displacements of storey mass center Accelerations of storey mass center Inter-storey drift at storey mass centers |

The service “Detailed Storey Results” provides results from the full mesh analysis. At this time, it may be used for results from any linear analysis, with or without dynamic analysis, with or without IRS analysis. It provides results in all supporting members, with easy selection of members per storey. Walls and columns may be represented on the same drawing. Typical provided results are: internal forces, resultants per wall or per storey…
Tip: before using detailed storey results, make sure that all supporting members of the building are properly allocated to storeys. That information is essential for proper handling of storey results.
|
Internal forces in supporting members |
Selection by storey Extreme by member (also for walls !) Walls & columns on the same drawing Simple choice of section level Display of average & total value for walls Available for static & seismic results Also suitable e.g. for load descending |
|
Resultant forces in supporting members |
Resultant for each wall on the same drawing Clear display of more components + all the key points mentioned previously |
|
Resultant forces in supporting members per storey |
Resultant of all supporting members at once (walls + columns combined) + all the key points mentioned previously |

The shear center per storey cannot be obtained directly from SCIA Engineer results. A method is proposed here to obtain it from standard results.
