wall and column may be modelled using either frame or shell section. I found it in atkins manual for analysis and design by etabs. is this true? if it is then what is the logic?
CSIberkley in their website define auto line constraint - Also known as ‘Edge’ constraint in SAP2000, the auto line constraint automatically connects adjacent elements that do not share common joints, such as a coarsely meshed shear wall intersecting with a finely meshed floor slab. Instead of...
hi,
I'm analysing a multistory concrete building in etabs. I use auto mesh option and auto line constrain. When i investigate force diagram for vertical load of a beam i found one of the equivalent load is upward (marked portion in attached file).But when i remove auto line constrain all...
Hi all'
i m confused about the design criteria of column and wall. ACI 318-11 code describe, for special moment resisting structural member which axial force is greater than (Agf'c)/10 must be design as column i,e least dimension to long dimension ratio should be within 2.5 and minimum dimension...
