PLASTIC M2: Define the second plastic bending moment behavior for frame
elements.
This option can be used only in c onjunction with the
*
FRAME SECTION option and is available only for
FRAME3D ele ments. It describes the bending moment in a frame element as a function of the plastic rotation
about the second cross-section direction.

with plastic rotation:
First line:
1. Bending yield moment about the second cross-section direction.
2. Plastic rotation about the second cross-section direction.
Repeat this data line as often as necessary to define the relationship between the bending moment and
the plastic rotation about the second cross-section axis. At least three pairs of data are required.
