Notification: Seismic Shear Forces Amplification Change for Elements Above Critical Section
The storey-by-storey design approach currently in MASS can excessively amplify shear forces beyond expected results
In cases...
Slab Assumptions in Multi-Storey Shear Wall Design
MASS does not design floor slab systems but allows for them to be modeled within Multi-Storey Shear Walls for the software to design th...
Understanding the Minimum Boundary Element Length Limits on Strain
While not explicitly listed as a strain limit, the minimum boundary element size can have a large effect on how high maximum compressiv...
