This is a question from someone who works in SoCal. ACI 318-14 Section 6.6.3.1.1...
Hello,
I am comparing shearwall results with ETABS and S-CONCRETE, and I came across this difference between how the flexural/axial D/C ratio check is calculated.
In S-CONCRETE, a horizontal line is projected to the P-M curve. The DCR is calculated by the ratio of horizontal length (shown...
