I am working on analyzing a 3 story wood structure that is over 100 years old. It has a basement that has about a 4 ft to 6 ft concrete stem wall at the perimeter. it is 36' x 55'. I have added analysis of interior shear to reduce the loading on the cracked concrete foundation for installation of hold downs. So, now that I have interior shear walls, it looks like a 4 story building. I has always used a spreadsheet we developed that if for 3 stories. Does anyone have a recommendation for the easiest shear wall software to use for multistory wood? I have tried to download woodworks, but I keep getting an error asking to uninstall it. I am also looking at clearcalcs, and digital canal shear wall program.
