I don't know where does this shear come from, my intermediate columns on my model are failing due to shear , iam using RCDC for Staad Pro Update 5
I have attached my Staad Model and RCDC file
MLANGO WA CHUMA MP.STD
MLANGO WA CHUMA MP-Column-1.zip
?
Shear force of those 2 columns is quite high (see the screenshot take from STAAD) so this leads to the shear failures.
ok, then what is the correct way to generate my model, i have a strip foundation using blockworks ,and on top of it there is a ground beam resting on the walls as shown on attached picture
