i am actually designing a tilt up wall
on of the panels have two or more openings due to doors and windows

my recent analysis is only for shear walls that is not tilt up so its easy to analyze one portion of it as a whole shear wall then the upper wall of windows or door is analyzed as lintel. But what happened if this will be a tilt up wall that can be consider as a whole shear wall that with opening?


i know that shear walls with opening can be found on IBC 2305.3.8 but I still needs an example problem for this

thank you in advance
