    Torsion Effect due to eccentricity between Centre of mass and centre of rigidity.

    Does Etabs calculate the torsion caused by Eccentricity between Centre of mass and centre of rigidity while calculating seismic forces or Have to be applied manually by the User?

    SHEAR WALLS IRREGULAR DISTRIBUTION

    GENTLEMEN: I HAVE APPLIED SEISMIC LOADS ACCORDING TO UBC-97 ( AUTO LATERAL LOADS). WITH DIFFERENT ECCENERCITIES VALUES BY ADDING AND/OR DELETING WALLS TO CHANGE THE POSITION of center OF RIGIDITY.the results load values ( T ,Mx and My) are still the same. i think that we have to apply manually...

    SHEAR WALLS IRREGULAR DISTRIBUTION

    would you explain in more details how etabs calculates the torsion due to eccenercity. do i have to identify any parameters to do that.

    DEEP BEAMS

    Hi I do a design for deep beam by finite element method. the modeling is area section ( membrane type ) with local axis 1 in the horizontal direction and local axes 2 in the vertical direction. the section cut out put forces and moments are reported in the directions 1 ,2 and Z. please advise...
