Hello Engineers,
I have modeled 20-story-5bays building with core wall. I'd like to calculate 1. Overturning moment and 2. Resisting Moment in Opensees?
1. Overturning moment:
Should I calculate the shear of each floor (sum of shear forces in all columns in each story) x (distance from the base) ?
2. Resisting Moment
Only (axial force of culumns at base level)*(distance from a point at base level) ?
Overturning moment and Resisting Moment

Re: Overturning moment and Resisting Moment
For the resisting moment, you should also consider the moments at the bottom of the columns. From equilibrium, overturning moment should be equal to the resisting moment
