Challenge

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

AIM

To run the analysis and design RCC shear wall shown in the ETabs model

PROCEDURE

STEP 1

  • Open the ETabs file
  • After the analysis click Concrete frame design

STEP 2

  • Need to check there is any failures occurs
  • Click the shear wall design tool
  • Select display info and choose PM failure

STEP 4

  • Click any wall and check the details
  • Here there is no failure occurs all the values of the 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

CALCULATION

Base Floor

`t_e`= 300mm

`l_e` = 150mm

Boundary of element = 600mm

Height of entire wall

`h_w`=10500mm

Clause 10.1.6

Minimum Reinforcement in RC Shear Wall

When the total height of the wall is divided by the length is more than 2

If it is a blender wall, we need to calculate

Horizontal min. Reinforcement = `P_h min`

Vertical B.E reinforcement = `P_v BE_min`

Minimum web reinforcement, `P_v web_min`

Net reinforcement, `P_v nat min`

`P_h min`= 0.025+0.5`(h_w/L_w-2)(P_h-0.025)`

`rho_vbe min`= 0.0080

`rho_v web = 0.025`

`rho_v`net = 0.0025=0.01375`(t_w/L_w)`

`rho_v`net = 0.0025=0.01375`(300/1500)`

For Longitudinal Reinforcement,

`rho_w`= `L_w-2t_w`=1500-2(600)=300

From Etabs,

The required rebar area,

`A_v = 13128 mm^2`

Minimum vertical reinforcement,

`rho_v`=0.029>0.0080

From IS 13920,

`A_sh = 0.05S_vh f_ck/f_y`

Minimum no. of bars = 8

`A_sh = Pi/4 d^2` = `pi/4 8^2`= 50.24mm^2

50.24 = 0.05*100*h(25/500) = 0.025h

h = 200.96

No of bars required = `(13128/(pi/4*25^2))`=`13128/(490*625)`=28 bars

For shear reinforcement,

For 2 legged 16mm dia bars

`A_sh = 4*Pi/4*d2`

`A_sh = 4*3.14*16^2=803.84mm^2`

Provide 6 no of 12mm in the web

Similarly,

From the ground floor to the first floor,

For longitudinal reinforcement,

No. of bar = 17

For shear reinforcement, `A_sh = 805mm^2 > 750mm^2`

For first-floor to the second floor

For longitudinal reinforcement,

Use 9 no. of 16mm dia bars

2nd-floor terrace,

For longitudinal reinforcement,

Provide 4 no. of 16mm dia bars

For share REinforcing,

`A_sh = 1005mm^2`
