Hi,
I am modeling a precast structure where I do not want or want limited load transfer at the wall to wall edge. I have fully released the edge so I would have expected not to be any load being transferred there although it seems there is a large amount of load being transferred.
Walls are modeled as shells. Floors as Diaphragms with partial stiffening.
Attached an image explaining the issue.
Is there a way of getting to the panel edge results with 0 load transfer as it is mainly with the out of plane moment MRy (but the first cut which might be due to the header attachment which it does transfer load in full)?.
P.S. The file is confidential and very large hence the no attachment of the same.
