Wall Panels - General Results

When the model is solved there are results spreadsheets specifically for Wall Panel Design and for Wall Forces. The Wall Panel Design spreadsheets are divided into different tabs: In plane, Out of Plane, Lintel, Wood Wall Axial, Wood Wall In-Plane, Wood Header and Wall Panel Seismic. Each tab provides code checks based on the relevant code, depending on the material type. These spreadsheets can be used as a summary of all of the panels in your model. To get detailed information about each panel, you can use the Wall Panel Detail Reports.

Wall Force Results

The Wall Force Results spreadsheet lists the axial force, shear and moments for each wall panel. The elevations where forces are reported are at the base of walls and at the locations of any diaphragms that intersect the walls. The elevation is given in terms of global elevation.

The following table provides descriptions for each of the columns in the results spreadsheet.

Column Header	Description
Wall Label	This column displays the wall panel label.
LC	This column reports the relevant Load Combination.
Elevation	This column report the elevation (in Global Coordinates) at which the forces are reported.
Axial	This column reports the axial force value in the wall. Compression force is reported as positive, Tension force as negative.
x-Shear	This column displays the shear force in the local x direction for the wall. This is the shear wall / strong direction of the wall.
z-Shear	This column displays the shear force in the local z direction for the wall. This is the cantilever / weak direction of the wall.
x-x Moment	This column displays the moment about the local x axis for the wall. This is the cantilever / weak direction of the wall.
z-z Moment	This column displays the moment about the local z axis for the wall. This is the shear wall / strong direction of the wall.

General Wall Detail Report

The general wall detail report shows the material type, height, length, and envelope forces for general walls.

The Wall Panel Design spreadsheet displays the calculated results for wall elements and may be accessed by selecting Wall Panel Design from the Results menu on the Explorer Panel. The spreadsheet has nine tabs: Concrete In, Concrete Out, Masonry InMasonry Out, Masonry Lintel, Wood Wall Axial, Wood Wall In-Plane, Wood Header and Wall Panel Seismic.

The first two tabs as well as the last tab give results of Concrete Wall analysis. For more information on these tabs see Concrete Wall Results and Concrete Wall - Seismic Results.

The next three tabs are results of Masonry Wall analysis. For more information on these tabs see Masonry Wall Results.

The next three tabs are results of Wood Wall analysis. For more information on these tabs see Wood Wall Results.
