ETABS / Column with no stiffness

[bertiskorny]

In ETABS, how do you produce a column with zero stiffness? Thank you.

Also try forum802. Just note that you have also posted the same question in this forum if you do.

What kind of stiffness - axial or flexural? Either way just set the member property modifier for the behaviour you are interested in to an insignificant number.

I want a column to have zero flexural stiffness. I want all the shear to be taken by the shear walls.

ok set the moment of inertial modifiers low
