Shear Wall–Frame Interactive Systems per ASCE 7-16 with ideCAD
In shearwalls, the sum of the shear forces arising from earthquake loads at each story level is automatically compared with shear forces occurring at the story from earthquake loads.
According to ACSE 7-16 12.2.5.8, the shear strength of the shear walls should be at least 75% of the design story shear at each story. The frames of the shear wall–frame interactive system should be capable of resisting at least 25% of the design story shear in every story.
