Roller is used at one end of long bridges. As it provides for lateral movement, thermal expansion and contraction will be facilitated. Usually, roller supports are rarely used as it would be akin to putting the member on roller skates. Some other support is needed to resist lateral load.

Coming to hinges.. knee or a door is an example of hinge.. They can rotate only in one direction and provide resistance to lateral movement.. However, because of their rotation, they do not make a structure stable and hence rarely used. They are however used as connections in trusses.

I used Etabs software to analyse a high-rise building. And I want to use templated UBC-codes inside to calculate the Seismic load. My question is: whether or not I have to control the seismic load by base shear load which is manual calculation? (just for more clarification: I can control this by input the scale factor into Eartquake definition in Etabs) I would highly appreciate your answer.
