ACI 350.3-06 - flexural stiffness k in SI units
Ok, I got it. Please disregard the above post. Using E in MPa, tw in mm and h in m, the formula as given in the errata for the standard results in units of N/m assuming that you use a 1000mm wall strip. Thanks!- azwanzig

ACI 350.3-06 - flexural stiffness k in SI units
In ACI 350.3-06, Seismic Design of Liquid-Containing Structures, on page 36 in the commentary formulas are provided for deriving the flexural stiffness, k, for a fixed-base, free-top cantilever wall in both imperial and SI units. It appears that k is derived from the deflection formula for a...- azwanzig
