Good day. Do you have a guide in modelling steel plate shear wall in ETABS? My thesis group are having a hard time in designing and modelling it in etabs. Hoping for your reply. Thank you
Thank you very much for your sharing. I did it according to your example. But there are some problems. The first error is that the file Buckle.fil is missed. So I add "*nodefile,global=yes U" to the INP of Buckle model. The error is eliminated. I want to know if I am doing it right. The second problem is about the post buckling model. Because the large displacement of 200mm is applied, the deformation of the column where the RP located is serious and there is no wave occurs on the plate. I don't know why and I wonder if the displacement of RP is too large. Could you give me some suggestions? I will appreciate it.
