Should we change stiffness modifiers, if a certain shear wall fails. Suppose I have 10X50 shear wall with 0.7 (for f11, f22) and 1 for f12. Now if these shear wall fails in seismic or wind combo for flexure of shear should we change the modifiers to make it pass.

Dear all, I am trying to design shearwalls through ETABS with temperature load applied over shell. At various location, spandral section fails in Shear due to temperature and piers (sometime in shear, mostly in flexure). (See Attached Image) Certainly all the problem in Shearwalls are due to temperature. I don't want to increase cross section of spandral or pier at some location just due to temperature load case as it will appears non-uniform with rest of the wall. I have seen stiffness modifier affect distribution of forces and also rigid/semi rigid daiphragm assumption. Can anybody guide how to properly design the shear wall with temperature load applied in ETABS or share any similar experience. Thanks in Advance.

How to draw shear wall in etabs?shear wall behaves like a vertical beam against lateral loading do we define it as area section or as beam?
