When Point load is applied on a spanderal in Etabs, the SFD doesnot depict it. Any Reeason??? A case may be column resting on spanderal

Zone 2B, R=6.5, dual system, rigid diaphragm, As for reinforcement I agree to you it can't be that low... I can give you remainder of info in the morning...

I need some guidelines regarding design of Shear Wall in ETabs. I have attached Design Detail of one of the pier of a 30 story building in Islamabad. this pear is at the basement and the analysis is "Dynamic". I have a feeling that the flexure reinforcement required is too little for this type of structure.In most of the cases flexure reinforcement is either controlled by the spacing requirements or the confinement requirements of Boundary Element. The analysis is based on UBC-97. Obj.Docx
