Glad it was helpful!
Informative but why did you assign only 4 pier labels? Each individual legs should be assigned separate pier label isn't it?

Detailed Design: If the goal is to perform a detailed design analysis, you can assign separate pier labels for each individual leg of the shear wall. This approach enables a detailed evaluation of the forces and moments acting on each individual segment of the wall, allowing for a precise design that meets the specific structural demands of each part. Overall Resistance: In cases where the primary interest is understanding the overall resistance of the core wall, assigning fewer pier labels (such as one for each major section or core) can be sufficient. This approach simplifies the analysis and focuses on the global performance of the wall.
Why did you assign the spandrels as a pier and not as a spandrel ? Thank you

In the case of the coupling beam (CB), it is necessary to assign both the Pier and Spandrel labels. Currently, I have only assigned the Pier label to the CB. To understand the process of assigning the Spandrel label to the CB, I recommend watching tutorial 4. It will provide detailed instructions on how to assign the Spandrel label. kzread.info/dash/bejne/dn6h0tNwfbe2mqw.html
