As the photos demonstrate, there are heavily reinforced areas within the shear walls. The beam in the center of the photos has 32 #11 bars, 21 feet long, installed in an “X” pattern across the opening and fully developed into the boundary elements. The design in this location and at the typical boundary elements effectively eliminated the use of internal vibration in much of the walls.
