Dear all,

It requires non linear analysis as pointed out by "someone". Will braced/virandeel system avoid nonliearity?

yes it will, as a virendeel girder or a transfer girder acts as a mechanism
for transfer of horizontal loads to vertical members which may be columns or
shear walls which is not the case in floating cols.
