Hello everyone, I need your opinion on this case. For the modal mass participating ratio, is it okay to have UY in mode 2 to achieve a small value? In the animation, the structural movement remains translational but becomes stiffer

Hello Everyone, I have a beam with dimensions of 200mm x 300mm, with a maximum spacing of 60mm. The nominal shear value with a spacing of 100mm is still more than enough to resist the occurring Vu. Can I use that spacing?

Thank you for all the help, guys!!. but maybe out of the subject a little bit, how do I know if my model is accurate and reflect real world condition

Dear everyone, I am modeling a five-story building and I am confused because I keep getting similar modal mass participation ratios along the x and y directions in the first mode. 26% along the x direction and 44% along the y direction. While these numbers are not exactly the same, the...
