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

Aim:-

The etabs file for a G+6 building is provided. Run the analysis and design the RCC shear walls (shown in the etabs model). The following challenge deals specifically with the shear wall of size 300x1500 at grid A-11 in the structural model.

Step 1:

1) Open the ETABS file

2) After the analysis click Concrete frame design

Step 2:

1) Need to check there is any failures occur

2) Click the Shear wall design tool

3) select Display info and choose PM failure

Step 3:

1) Click any wall and check the details

2) Here there is no failure occurs all the values of the reinforcement ratio are within 4%.

Step 4:

Shear Reinforcing

1) Go to concrete frame design

2) Click Display design info

3) Choose Shear reinforcing.

Boundary element width

1) Go to concrete frame design

2) Click Display design info

3) Choose Pier edge or boundary zone width

Longitudinal Reinforcement:

1) Go to concrete frame design

2) Click Display design info

3) Choose Pier longitudinal reinforcing
