Designing Chords and Collectors using ETABS
Designing Chords and Collectors using ETABS
(OP)
Does any body help for designing Chords and Collectors for Concrete rigid diaphragm from ETABS?
I have tried to extract the forces from ETABS using SemiRigid diaphragm approach but the axial force diagram doesnt looklike good numbers.
Any suggestion, any idea?
Thanks.

I have mentioned the same thing that I am using Semi Rigid diaphragm. The question is that forces are not giving me good sense of understanding for collector beams. I have asked if you guys can give me some idea that how u design chords and collectors for rigid floor using ETABS.
Thanks.
