RCDC-Column & Shear Wall
A parametric wall is having different thickness at different levels. RCDC is unable to show the correct thickness. What may be the cause?
ACI 318-19, CL. 18.7.3 requirements are checked by RCDC in design
After importing ACCDB in RCDC, Few shear Walls which are originally part of Combined walls, are not identified in RCDC file
Boundary Element length calculation for shear wall as per IS13920 2016
Can RCDC handle columns of shape L, T and other odd shapes?
Can we design shear wall/wall with single layer (mesh) of reinforcement?
Can we have calculations for boundary zone length in wall design?
Clause used for “Minimum Eccentricity Calculation” of walls as per IS 456-2000
Customization of column reinforcement after auto design
Design of different moment resisting frame as per ACI code
Detailed explanation for Gravity column design in RCDC
Does RCDC calculate the Effective length factor automatically or it is user defined? Is it same for all columns in model or different?
Does RCDC calculate the effective length factor based on ACI 318M -14 Fig. R6.2.5 (b) for sway frames?
Does RCDC designs shear wall for out of plane moments in addition to in plane moments?
Forces for column do not match with analysis
How and when Modulus of rupture check performed in RCDC?
How can we change the Un-supported length in RCDC when column is tied in one direction and is free in another direction?
In edit link arrangement all the internal links can be removed. It doesn’t affect the design of links in column design. Please clarify
In Failure Diagnostic We Can Get Only Reason Of Failure But Not Get The Calculation. How We Know The Failure Calculation Of Column?
In my model I have grouped the columns. Instead of column name I want to see group names. How to do that?
In RCDC, we can group columns and design them. But, when we go on creating elevation there is no way to create a single elevation for all the columns in a group. This feature is available only for detailed drawing. Can we incorporate the same for elevation
In which cases we should not consider perform slenderness check - When to and when not to consider slenderness?
Lateral ties diameter, spacing & no of columns main bars are correlated by formula given in IS13920 for rectangular and circular column. Can any single parameter be provided to calculate remaining two parameters in RCDC, once the initial design is comp

On what basis does RCDC perform the Joint shear check based on the Aspect ratio of vertical member as per Clause 7.1.2 IS13920 - 2016 & Amendment no.1 - 2017?
Pl refer to Annexure A off IS 13920 which states walls are to be designed for uniaxial bending. Columns are considered as biaxial. Hence, their design cannot be clubbed under one set
Please clarify the braced and un-braced design conditions
Provide detailed explanation for identification of section as a wall with respect to Depth and Width of member in RCDC
RCDC consider 0.4% reinforcement for column minimum reinforcement by default. Is there any clause in IS code to reduce column minimum reinforcement from 0.8% to 0.4%?
RCDC follows ductile detailing as per 13920 for outer ring of boundary element but reduces link dia. & spacing for inner links
RCDC Not allowing to Merge Levels / RCDC Shows Message -"Levels cannot be merged due to change in column/wall geometry"
Reading 150mm x150mm column in RCDC
Redesign of shear wall
Shear reinforcement spacing for gravity column as per IS13920 2016 code
Skip Joint Check in IS13920 2016
Some of the columns are missing at lower level even if they have exist in Staad model
Spacing of confining reinforcement for column as per IS13920 2016
There is option under shear wall for detailing as Boundary Element or Equi Spaced rebar. I wish to have detailing as equi-spaced rebar, but it never gives detailing as equi spaced and redesign consume lot of time
What is the basis for only 20% of vertical reinforcement is considered for the calculation of Shear capacity (Tc)?
When equal number of bars are provided in all columns from plinth to top floors, after design it’s showing lesser bars at the bottom and more at top
Why only 50% of longitudinal reinforcement considered For Column Shear Calculation?
Why RCDC shows message of “Elevation of Column has been Omitted” while generating elevation of combined wall?

After importing ACCDB in RCDC, Few shear Walls which are originally part of Combined walls, are not identified in RCDC file
Below is the actual Geometry of Combined wall layout at the bottom most level - as per the Analysis Model
There are multiple levels at which the Geometry i.e. the Shape and arms of the Combined wall is changing.
The Combined wall is getting split into multiple standalone wall.
Ex. Refer to pier label P9 at 1 level above the Bottom most level.
This wall which was a part of the combined wall is now a
single shear wall
from this Level and above.
At this point, we need to assign a separate pier label for this wall say
P9-New1. Further, maintain this pier label till this wall remains as a single wall only and is not splitting. The moment this single wall gets split into 2 walls, provide a separate pier label for the 2nd arm of the split wall.
As per the current RCDC logic, the situation when the Combined wall arms become individual or Stand alone walls is not handled.
So, whenever any arm of the Combined wall is getting Split and further becoming a Single Shear Wall, we have to assign it a Separate Pier label.
The Pier label should be separate from the level where it has got split.
If we don't assign Separate Pier label then the arm of Combined wall which has split will not get identified in RCDC
