Model stops converging with the first crack

[Yosra78]

Hi,

I modeled a reinforced concrete wall using element SOLID 65. Steel is modeled as smeared. My problem is the model stops converging at the first crack, in other words, when the tensile stress of concrete is reached.

Need your help please,

Thanks
