    Pier and Spandrel Labelling in ETABS:

    Wall elements can be grouped together and assigned a pier label, this is the basis of the shear
    wall design and careful consideration should be given to the labelling of piers. If a wall is broken
    by an opening the remaining wall elements each side of the opening should be labelled as
    separate piers.
