Introduction

This video explains how to edit or create custom hold-downs in Shearwalls, which are essential for shearwall design. Users can modify existing hold-downs, including anchor bolt properties, displacement limits, and shrinkage compensators, or add new ones, such as the MyTech UPHD9. The program automatically applies hold-down capacities to larger stud sizes and warns users when smaller sizes are used. Once created, custom hold-downs are saved in the database for future shearwall projects.
