Recommendation: Because a structures vibration characteristics determine how it responds to any type of dynamic load always perform a modal analysis first before trying any other dynamic analysis!

Normali$ation to mass matri, is the default and is required for a spectrum analysis or if a subsequent mode superposition analysis is planned! ;hoose normali$ation to unity when you want to easily compare relative values of displacements throughout the structure! Modes normali$ed to unity cannot be used in subsequent mode superposition analyses (transient harmonic spectrum or random vibration)
