RAM SS - Backstay Effect

$

Are there any tips on getting realistic shear wall loads with backstay effect in RAM SS? I've read of setting the transfer diaphragm to Semi-Rigid but I'm dealing with wind tunnel loads so I don't think I can set the diaphragms to Rigid. I have a wall that doubles in shear from one story to another and I'm sure the slab cannot transfer that much load.
