wall analyses

Post by meftikal »

hi

i doing a dynamic analysis of 3 shear walls of 21m 42m and 63m. I remark that the result of the displacement is the same in opensees and seismostruct for the shear wall of 21m and 42m but not the same for the 63m. Seismostruct give me wrong result when the shear wall is very high. i don`t know if i have true for thinking that

Dear mef,

The behaviour you describe is very peculiar and seems to point in the direction of a model error - have you checked your 63 m model very carefully, in both OpenSees and SeismoStruct? We really do suspect that one of the two must have an error somewhere.
