Dear all,
The fiber section is always used to model the RC beam/column. It can only work for tension, compression and bend due to each fiber containing a UniaxialMaterial. How does the fiber section work for shear condition?
In the OpenSees document, section Aggregator can aggregate previously-defined UniaxialMaterial objects into a section. It is so confused to understand this. How the fiber section aggregated a UniaxialMaterial for shear works?
Thank you very much!

Re: Shear problem of fiber section
a section aggregator can aggregate previously-defined UniaxialMaterial objects into a section force-deformation model. If you add shear force-deformation to the fiber section using the section aggregator there will be no moment shear interaction. Fiber section and shear aggregated to it will work in series.
