Shear walls are essential elements of structures, especially in high-rise buildings. When designing a shear wall with openings, it’s crucial to focus on the coupling beams since they can significantly affect the building’s lateral resistance capacity.
Common 3D models in FEA software cannot fully capture the behavior of this critical part, especially in cases where the coupling beam is a deep beam or weakened by an opening.
Looking for a safe and economical solution to this problem? Don’t want to waste time with a complex assessment? Do you want to see the results for the ultimate limit state and the serviceable limit state, including, e.g., the crack width check?
Join our webinar on Wednesday, November 23, 2022, at 10:00 AM (GMT) to learn more about coupling beams, and how to code-check them quickly and easily in the IDEA StatiCa Detail application.
