I am searching for a really good example in a textbook or paper on how to model a concrete shear wall using beams and columns. I have an interior concrete shear wall, 8" thick, 36 feet high and 200 feet long. There are various door openings in the wall. I will be using a computer program to analyze the shear capacity of the wall using inputs of beams and columns. I would like to see an example and perhaps do the calcs first by hand.
Thanks

try digging out ciria report 102, section 3.5 for a starting point.
 
Where can I find ciria report 102, section 3.5? What does ciria stand for?
Thanks
