Shear Wall Design Calculator

Professional concrete shear wall design for high-rise and seismic structures

ACI 318-19 Ch.11ACI 318-19 Ch.18Boundary ElementsTransparent Steps

Note: This tool calculates per ACI/DPT standards but does not replace review by the design engineer.

Geometry

Wall Length Lw (m)

Wall Height Hw (m)

Hw/Lw ratio: 3.00 → Slender wall (Hw/Lw > 2)

Wall Thickness tw (mm)

Loads

Use factored values (e.g. 1.2D+1.6L) in kN / kN·m

Axial Load Pu (kN)

Shear Force Vu (kN)

Moment Mu (kN·m)

Materials

Concrete Grade

Steel Grade

Design Code

Boundary Elements (Seismic)

Check boundary element requirements (ACI §18.10.6)

Design Drift δu/hw

Typical values: 0.005–0.010. Per ASCE 7 story drift limits.
