Challenge

Analysis & Design of RCC shear walls in the model using ETABS

Aim: Extract values of longitudinal steel ratio, boundary element length and shear reinforcing ratio from the design results.
Provide cross sectional steel arrangement of the shear wall from its base up to terrace, in compliance with provisions of IS 13920 – 2016. AutoCAD application can be used for this exercise. Alternatively, it can be drawn by hand as well.
Provide elevation drawings of the reinforcement details of the shear wall from base up to terrace.

Procedure:
1)Open etabs software and run analysis of the building.
2)Click on concrete frame design ,check for failures in structure.
3)Click on shear wall design tool, select display info and choose PMfailure.
4)Select the wall and check details.
5)Open concrete frame design, click on display design info and select shear reinforcing.
6)Similarly open concrete frame design and select pier edge and boundary zone width.

Result: Extract values of longitudinal steel ratio, boundary element length and shear reinforcing ratio from the design results successfully completed.
