Hi all,
I'm working on a 9-storey building and I want to extract the seismic cumulative shear forces from the storey plots.
Upon closer examination, it seems like there is a mismatch between the base shear shown in the storey response plots and the base shear for the same load case in the base reactions table. See below:
There is a similar difference in the base overturning moments.
Granted, it's not a huge difference. But I've seen another ETABS model produced by a colleague showing much larger differences.
Does anyone know why this might be happening?
Thank you,
Ilyas
