Thank you for the reply.
As you suggested, I've made the PT transfer beam stiffer by changing the moment of inertia about 2 & 3 to 30 in the property modifier section. I arrived at the value of 30 by restricting the maximum deflection of the PT transfer beam to 18mm. Is this the right practice...
I have a situation where my RCC structure is not exhibiting the desired behavior in ETABS due to the PT transfer beam at the first-floor roof level. Below are the details of the structure:
Number of Floors - G+4
Ground Floor Height - 3.2m (Parking)
First Floor Height - 6.2m (Mezzanine Floor at...
Hi everyone,
