shear wall design

Jia Yang Liew
On the staad example no. 9 regarding shear wall analysis, the wall is connected to columns & beams using surface mesh command. could anyone help if we model it without columns & beams as most shear wall do in the building. because i tried modeling a 4storey building and using floor load, the load can't be read near the shear wall if without a beam attached to it.

  • THANKS A LOT NIHESH FOR YOUR REPLY. MY NEXT CONCERN NOW IS HOW TO DESIGN THE FOUNDATION OF THE SHEAR WALL BECAUSE I TRIED IMPORTING AT STAADFOUNDATION THE GENERATED SUPPORTS FROM STAADPRO CAN'T BE SEEN AT STAADFOUNDATION. PLEASE HELP NIHESH ON THIS PROBLEM OF MINE.

     

    THANKS A LOT,

    can you tell me which version of the STAAD FOUNDATION are you running? By the way, you need to run the analysis succesfully for the program to import the support details. If you can attach the STAAD file, I can give it a try

     NIHESH,

     

    THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN NIHESH FOR REPLYING MY CONCERN. I'M USING STAADPRO 2006 AND STAADFOUNDATION 3.5

    YES, I RUN FIRST THE STAADPRO BEFORE IMPORTING IT AT STAADFOUNDATION. THE REGULAR SUPPORTS REACTIONS APPEARED AT STAADFOUNDATION BUT WHAT I MEANT IS THE GENERATED IMAGINARY SUPPORTS AT THE BASE OF THE SHEAR WALL IN ORDER TO DESIGN ITS FOOTING, IT DIDN'T APPEAR AT STAADFOUNDATION. PLS CHECK MY MODEL (I EMAILED IT AT YOUR YAHOO EMAIL AD - DON'T KNOW TO ATTACH HERE )

     

    THANKS A LOT NIHESH. I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOUR KINDEST REPLY,
