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 (show in the etabs model). The following challenge deals specifically with the shear wall of size 300x1500 at grid A-11 in the structural model.
INTRODUCTION:
- 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:
- opened the given file,
- choose the A11 shear wall unhide the remain shear walls,
- run the analysis,
- choose the shear wall design and click on it,
- choose the main reinforcement details from the selection box, and check the details.
- choose the pier shear reinforcement details from the selection box, and check the details.
- choose the edge reinforcement details from the selection box, and check the details.
- design the reinforcement as per the requirement manually.
