Dear Engineers,
In normal practice, we provide big transfer beam underneath shear wall so that large opening can be obtained below the transfer level.
For example, if the shear wall is 10m leng ... |

Not necessary to use a very large section to cater a large bending moment. For instance, if my section is 1000x2200, the cracking moment is about +-3600KN.m for G45 concrete. If this section has to wi ... |

Dear All,
Can anyone please enlighten me on how to cater the torsional moment developed when the shear wall is resting at the edge of transfer beam. I believe most of the software in the market has ... |
