Introduction

This video demonstrates how quickly and efficiently a complete structural model can be created using the Shearwalls Program. It walks through essential steps in real time, including entering site information, importing a CAD file, placing exterior and interior walls, adding openings, and designing the roof. The program auto-generates wind and seismic loads, while still allowing for manual refinement. After finalizing hold-down configurations, the entire design process is completed in under 10 minutes, showcasing the speed and usability of the program.

Résultats de l'apprentissage

A la fin de cette leçon, vous serez capable de :

• Outline the structural modeling workflow in Shearwalls, including site setup, CAD import, and wall placement.
• Modify structural elements by aligning and extending walls, adding openings, and designing roof blocks to match project requirements.
• Evaluate automatically generated wind and seismic loads, and apply manual adjustments to meet design intent.
• Complete a structural model by reviewing analysis results, refining components such as hold-downs, and finalizing the design within the program.
