I'm designing a G+5 building which is situated in Lahore. For it's seismic design, the seismic design category is coming out to be D. Is it okay? -

Hello everyone, I am redesigning an existing car parking shed for pad foundation design. I have modeled it in SAP2000. Joint reactions are contraditory to the presumed load distribution. There should be vertical reactions i.e. Fz as the shed is overhang. However, the reaction Fz in one column is in upward direction whereas in other column is in downward direction. Can anyone here help with reviewing the model and offer the comments what I am missing here. Thanks in advance. Car Parking Shed Model SAP2000 v7 final dated 2-5-24.sdb -

While designing a high-rise structure, I encountered an issue. The client requested the slabs to be designed as post-tensioned flat slabs. However, I am aware that flat slabs are not suitable for seismic-resistant design and should not be used in high seismic zones. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any direct clauses in the codes addressing this issue. If seniors can provide a reference from the code specifying not to design post-tensioned flat slabs in high seismic zones, it would be greatly appreciated. -

Very informative post. I like the way you talked about ehsaas rashan program and their benefits for Modern Steel Design -
Here is a link. Hope it help https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/seismic-behavior-comparison-infill-wall-strut-models-using-hasılcıo/ or You can use FEMA-356 chapter 7, section 7.5 for linear and nonlinear modelling of infill walls. -
Thank you for your valuable feedback. I have checked all the files in that attachment and they used strut to show masonry wall properties. It was helpful but I have to assigned a Multi-linear plastic link element to strut for better NL analysis. and Now I am confused for defining some parameters in the ML plastic link element.
