Hi
I got a silo wall building with a flat bottom slab and then 4 openings at the bottom to form 4 walls.
The building is fully symmetric in both axes.
I ran the analysis model in the 2 principle axis. I got a base shear value, then I tried to check the case if I rotated the building 45 degrees on the plan
That is to check the max shear on walls comparing both cases, but I noticed the base shear is greater.
I assume no matter the building orientation, the base shear should still be the same.
Any idea what is the issue in this case?
Thanks
