Dear Saeed
tanx for reply.
I have checked it and the difference is about 30000 KN which is really too much.
How can I check whether they are connected or not to the diaphragm.
I got the weightUsed from Auto Seimic UBC97 in ETABS and it is different with what I got from the sum of diaphragm mass data?
I do not know what is the problem?
Dear Sebastian
Thank you for your reply. Actually I figured out a way to appled the force and I see it better to share it with you.
The model that I had in SAP was a steel from for a warehouse with inclined roof. The wind load appled perpendicular to the roof at the joints. So I defined new...
How to apply an incline point load at a joint in a frame without dividing the load into its componets?
Is the point load applied to the frame at the 0 distance considered to be the applied load at the joint or not?
I am doing Shear wall design using ETABS for erathquake analysis model. In one of the floors I received a error said that the "Pier Shear Exceed the maximum allowed" How should I eliminate the problem?

Thank you for your reply Slickdeals!
What I got from your reply is to create two separate ETABS models. The main problem here is, I can not study the period of the complete structural system any more!
I tried to cut the model and create separate columns and beams at the common area of two...
I have a quite big structure and restriction of using shear walls made me to come up with idea in order to reduce the period (modes) of struture. I divided the strutural system that I had into two sub- structures and I used expansion joints in the slabs (15 floors) in order to keep the two...
1)How can I model a simple oneway slab in ETABS?
2) I have long spans in my slab and I should use truss or steel joist under the slab how can I model my slab in ETABS?

As you may know in the 2nd,3rd, and 4th load combinations we have Lr which is live load from the roof. Now, the question is how we can define these load combinations in ETABS?
