Challenge

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

AIM:The main aim of this challenge is to Analysis & Design of RCC shear walls in the model using ETABS

INTRODUCTION:

The model is given in question which needs to be downloaded and analysed using the E-tabs software and the following results needs to be submit for one shear wall having 300x1500 at grid A-11.

  • 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:

  • starting with the E-tabs software
  • opening the model 9 given in question

  • the shear wall asked to design and sketch the reinforcement details is shown below

  • after selecting the shear wall, the view is set to elevation along 11 for clear visibility

  • then the model is analysed for results
  • checking the model for shear wall design reinforcement and also taking the screen shots of longitudinal, shear reinforcement and boundary zone width details as shown below

longitudinal reinforcement details

shear reinforcement details

bondary zone widths

  • also we need the details of stories for elevation

  • detailing guidelines for shear wall as discussed in the vedio is as shown below

the horizontal reinforcement and dia of bar is as follows

confining zone reinforcement details as shown below

RESULT:

hence, the results of the above model is shown below,

the reinforcement details are listed in the procedure. the plan and elevation is shown below
