Modelling shear walls in Ansys
(OP)
Hi all,
I need some advise on modelling shear walls in Ansys. What element types are best to use and what are the advantages/ disadvantages of plane and shell elements? I am currently using shell type 63.The actual building will have 400mm thick walls.Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
