steel shear wall
(OP)
How can I model a steel shear wall in SAP2000 .
What's the bending and membrane of shear wall?
What's their role in the model? I have a shear wall with 0.125 inch thickness as well as some horizental stiffners on the steel plate.
thanks

From my experience, obtaining deflections and element behavior that is accuracy is tricky.
