In a shear wall dynamic analysis using ETABS, I notice that the reactions are all positive. From literature, it says that the programs display only the maximum values. Is there anyway I could know the reaction values that are in compression or tension ?, and about the reaction values regarding the direction of the load (-X or +X), as well as, the minimum reaction values of the wall. Thanks.
