Prior to installing the INSTRUCT 1.1, it is suggested to uninstall any previous version of the INSTRUCT program. To do this, please follow these steps:
To successfully install the INSTRUCT 1.1, it is recommended to run the Microsoft Windows Update on all the Windows XP, Microsoft Office 2003 (or 2007) and .Net Framework. To do this, please follow these steps:
If you have Microsoft Office 2003 in your computer, please install the new INSTRUCT 1.1 program by double-clicking the “INSTRUCT_T1.msi” file.
If you have Microsoft Office 2007 in your computer, in order to view the results of some of the data drawing it will be necessary to install the Microsoft Office 2007 Web Components.
You can also find this help manual by clicking “Help” in the INSTRUCT 1.1 program. The intent of this manual is to 1) provide users the analytical background of the pushover analysis for both DOS and Windows-based INSTRUCT, 2) provide instruction for the preparation of input data, and 3) provide guidance in the interpretation of output data from the Windows-based INSTRUCT. For bridge bents other than the typical bents mentioned above, the comprehensive DOS version of INSTRUCT can be used to perform the pushover analysis (Not included in this package).
If you have any questions on the program installation or further comments, Please contact Dr. W. Phillip Yen at wen-huei.yen@dot.gov .
