Part 2 – Problem 06: According to the deliverable, ‘a thorough analysis of the structure with the addition is not required in this deliverable’. Does it mean that we need a SAP2000 model for the existing structure and another model for the additional structure, respectively, or do we need a model which contains both structures together?

For part 1 of the structural deliverable , your results should be based on your SAP/ETABS model for the existing structure only. For part 2, the addition should be
incorporated into your existing model and the two components should be modeled together. For any future questions about the additional structure, analysis should be conducted based on your SAP/ETABS model that has both the existing and the addition structure together.
