You can add short/head shearwall pieces connected to group shearwalls, which do not provide 1/6 size ratio in shearwall groups, to the sherawall arm as a title. You can add the short/head shearwall as a title to the corresponding shearwall arm of the group shearwall by selecting the Short/head shearwall option in the shearwall properties and naming the same group shearwall.
Location of the Short/Head Shearwall Feature
You can access the short/head shearwall feature from the Shearwall Settings dialog.
Usage Steps
Define the short/head shearwalls in the plan plane in the appropriate size and position using the Shearwall command.
Click twice on the defined short/head shearwall to open the Properties window.
From the Shearwall Settings window, click on the Reinforcement Design tab.
Under Head Reinforcement, activate the short/head shearwall option.
In this way, the short/head shearwall you choose will be included in the head of the shearwall arm they are attached to.
Select all the short/head shearwall and shearwall arms and click the Properties command from the right-click menu .
The shearwall settings dialog will open.
Give a name to the group name line and click the OK button to close the window.
All shearwalls together with the short/head shearwall will be defined as a single shearwall group.
Short/head shearwall are taken into account in the shear strength calculation of the shearwall group.
After the analysis, the shearwall design results can be seen in the Shearwall Group Reinforced Concrete dialog.
