thanks UcfSE for your attention.they are concrete shear walls.

I have a steel structure in wich the latteral resisting system are shear walls.in our country there isn't any recommendation for such systems in our codes.if there is any in American codes AISC or UBC(IBC)I will be thanked if someone direct me. BEST REGARDS

I am designing a sway intermediate concrete structure with ETABS 2000.it seems that ETABS doesnt consider the true value for designing the shear reinforcement for concrete columns. It calculates the true value for column moment capacity but takes the Vp=0 .so in each column the Vu governs the...

I want to model a pile in CSI Safe program.I define a column spring support and I need to calculate the stiffness of the pile .can anyone tell me how to calculate it?

I think the joists are not rigid enough to act as supports.so the slab doesnt treet as a one-way slab.so you shoud distribute the loads based on the stiffness of slab and joists.I can suggest you using SAFE or ETABS2000.

We want to produce siporex lightweight blocks.we want to import the instruments.can someone suggest me a factory to bye the instruments from?

Is there ane recomendation for hunched concrete beams?I havn"t find any in ACI & UBC code.
