Hello, Does anyone know if there is a quick way to identify what shear walls have cracks on ETABS ? I am thinking about displaying the tensile stresses of the shells (S22) and comparing these stresses with the modulus of rupture (7.5 *sqrt f'c). Would that be enough to know if the walls have cracked ? Many thanks

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.
