two moment frames aligned in a wall system frame

[diegotorres1]

I am new to design (recently graduated), and i have been working on a project that has moment frames on all 4 sides of the building (rectangular one-story retail building) and on the short length walls, i have two moment frames on each side because the building has some pop up towers that take up a lot of the wind pressure. I would awesome that if two frames are in line, one of them will take more wind load and the other will see less because of the distribution of loading from the first frame leaving less for the second frame. Is there such a process so calculate such distribution based on the stiffness of the frame? i have brick veneer on the walls so i am limiting the drift of the moment frame to 1/2". any idea where i can look more into that?

Generally, depending on the framing scheme, it is assumed that the deflection at the top of the frames is equal. And therefore each one sees the amount of load attributed to it's stiffness. If they are equal stiffness frames, and equal deflection, then the forces resisted by each is the same.

is there a specific process for understanding the distribution of load per the stiffness of each frame? sorry for the simple questions, trying to understand as i am fairly inexperience.
