Hi guys,
when u build a 3D model and after running the model, u notice that one of the many shear walls is unsafe versus shear, what i generally do is the following and would like to share my thoughts with you :
1- assign modifiers for f12 (0.7) so the wall could give some of the carried shear to the adjacent walls which the modifiers are unchanged.
2- Model the wall as a column so it wont get the transfered shear and will be distributed to the adjacent elements.
your thoughts are appreciated.
thank u
