According to yabai wiki, i tried those 2 attempts in my skhdrc

balance in x or y axis is not working.

# balance out tree of windows (resize to occupy same area)
cmd - 0 : yabai -m space --balance
cmd - 8 : yabai -m space --balance x-axis
cmd - 9 : yabai -m space --balance y-axis

Neither, yabai uses bsp layout. Sadly, you can only do scripts, if you want to open windows only in one axis.
