Thank you very much. The article you have mentioned has been very helpful.

Dear all,

Is it possible to model shear wall in the shape of E (3 parallel walls connected to 1 perpendicular to them)?
Or right now is it best to model it as a connection of i.e. U and rectangle wall (with small duplication of section in the middle of U wall)?

Best regards

Dear Tim Huff,
Thank you for response. I will consider this also. But it appears more to be more like numerical issue rest comparing rest of the results of the model.

Dear all,

I've found strange behaviour during time-history analysis of simple cantilever.
After seismic analysis with load as a rotational acceleration I get bending moment as shown in picture (non-zero moments at the top of the structure, and change in sign in the middle node).
This does not ...
