wind uplift on segmented shear wall

[mity64]

I do have a very basic question about calculating wind uplift.

I'm working on a shear wall which has two openings along its length. How should I calculate wind uplift if I choose a segmented shear wall approach? Should the wind uplift be divided between three shear walls? I've calculated my wind pressure, just want to know what would be the wall tributary area to calculate wind uplift.

I'm very confused! I truly appreciate if you can give me an idea either by your comments or sending some example cals.

Thanks!

Wouldn't the answer to your question be based on the load path of the roof framing coming into the walls?

Use your roof uplift pressure and apply it to the roof framing and all framing that attaches to the shear wall would deposit an uplift on your shear walls, right?
