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

Aim: To run the analysis and design the RCC shear walls shown in the Etabs model.

Softwares used:

• Etabs
• AutoCAD

Procedure:

Step 1:

• Open the ETABS file
• Shear wall Design/Check
• After the analysis click Concrete frame design

Step 2:

• Need to check there is any failures occurs
• Click Shear wall design tool
• Select Display info and choose PM failure

Step 3:

• Click any wall and check the details
• Here there is no failure occurs all the values of reinforcement ratio is within 4%

Step 4:

Shear Reinforcing:

• Go to concrete frame design
• Click Display design info
• Choose Shear reinforcing

Step 5:

Boundary element width

• Go to concrete frame design
• Click Display design info
• Choose Pier edge or boundary zone width

Step 6:

Longitudinal Reinforcement:

• Go to concrete frame design
• Click Display design info
• Choose Pier longitudinal reinforcing
