Challenge

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

Aim

  • To extract value of longitudinl steel ratio, boundry element length and shear reinforcing ratio from design resulat
  • To provide cross section steel arrangement of shaer wall from its base up to terrace
  • To provide elevation drawing of the reinforceent details of shear wall from base up to terrace

Procedure 

Step 1

  • Open challenge and downlod attach file and open in Etabs 
  • Go to analyze and click on run analysis

  • Click on view select 3D view

Step 2

  • Go to display then click on Show table

  • Then table  is display on screen then go to structure output click on model information select modal participating mass ratio

  • Result will appear on screen 

Step 3

  • Go to view click plan view

  • Select base floor applay and ok

Step 4

  • Go to open reaction then select earthquake load towards X-direction in load cse then click apply and ok

  • then base shear reaction will appear on screen

Step 5

  • Go to display click on show table after selecting show table option new tab visible click on base reaction then click on ok

  • Table will be displayed

  • Base shear reaction rable  will appear. In base shear of EQX and EQY wll be taken for calculating %of SF taken up by shear wall

Step 6

Now go to view click on elevation view click on 11 and ok

Step 7

  • Now we have to start designing
  • Click on concrete frame design, start desgn/check 

  • Now we have to wait till design completes that will take few second to complete design

Step 8

  • We have to start design of shear wall click on shear wall design , start design /check

Step 9

Go to shear wall design select display design info , click on reiforcement ratio in design output

  • Now peir reinforcement  ratios will be visible

Step 10

Go to shear wall design click on display info select pier shear reinforcement in design output

Step 11

  • Go to shear wall design sclect display design info click on peir edge/boundry zone width in design output then click on ok

Step 12

Right click on shear wall then design detail will bea displayed

Step 13

Calculation for shear wall from base up to terrace are shown below

Shear wall calculation

Basement floor to first floor

Height of wall (h)=2100

Lenght of wall (L)=1500

The wall here has been considered as slender wall

Height of wal/length of wall>2

2100/1500=14>2

Hence it is slender wall

Slender wall for min horizontal reinforcement

(Ph)min =0.025+05(hw/lw-2)(hw/lw-2)(ph-0.0025)

Where

hw=Height of wall=2100

Lw=length of wall=1500

Ph=0.0297X1500X300=13365

Substituing all value in eq of (Ph)min 

(Ph)min=0.76

(Pv BE)min=0.0080

(Pv web )min=0.025

(Pv net)min=0.0025+0.01375(tw/hw)

                    =0.0025+0.01375(300/1500)

                    =0.0052

Calculate for slender wall for longitudinal reinforcement

Av=13128mm^2

Minimum vertical reinforcement, ev

=13128/Vross section area of steel

=13128/(1500X300)

=0.029>0.0080

From IS 13920

Ash=0.05Sv h (fck/fy)

Min no of bars =8

Ash=50.24 mm^2

50.24=0.05 X100Xh(25/500)

50.24=0.025h

h=200.96

use dia =25mm

No of bars =13128/Area

No of bar=13128/490.625

             =28 bar

For shear reinforcement

Ash=780mm^2

Assume 2L 8mm dia@100mm C/C

Ash=(2x Pai/4 X8^2)/0.100

      =1005.30>780mm^2

The shear reinforment is required

 2.From ground floor to first floor

For longitudinal reinforcement 

Av=8273mm^2

Min vertical reinforcement =8273/(1500X300)

=8273/450000=0.0018

As per IS 13920

Ash=005Sv h fck/fy

h=200.96

No of bars =17

For shear reinforcement

Ash=750mm^2

by providing 2L 8mm dia @100 C/C

Ash=[2x (pai/4) Xd^2]/100

       =1005>750mm^2

similarly For web 

By providing 2 L 8mm dia @125 mm C/C

Ash=(2xpai/4x^2)/0.125

     =805mm^2>750mm^2

3.From 1st to 2nd floor

For longitudinal reinforcement

Asv=4896mm^2

Asv=4896/(1500x300)

     =0.0108>0.025

As per IS 13920

Ash=0.05 Sv h fck/fy

No of bar =4896 (pai/4 25^2)

               = 9 bar

Use 9 no of 16mm bar

4. For 2nd to terrace 

Boundry elements be=300mm

Tw=300

For longitudinal reinforcement

Asv=2150

=2150/{1500x300}

=0.005

Ash= 0.05 Sv h fck/fy

By providing 8mm dia @125mm C/C

No of bars =2150(pai/4 25^2)

                =4.33 ~4no

Provide 4 no o 16mm

For shear reinforcement 

Min Ash=750mm^2

Min dia bar =8mm

By providing 2L 8mm dia @100 mm C/C spacing

Ash=[2X50.64]/100

Ash=1005mm^2
