Staad manual states that element design will be performed only for the moments Mx & My at the center of the element & will not be performed for Fx,Fy,Fxy,Qx,Qy or Mxy.
Is it enough to design a shearwall based n Mx and My w/o considering Fx or Fy? or are shearwalls designed separately?
I'm using a space frame building model.I need help on shearwall design on my space frame.
thanks!
