Wood Diaphragm Deflections. II: Implementing a Unified Approach for Current CLT and WSP Practice
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Horizontal wood diaphragm systems, whether decked with conventional or mass timber panels, transfer wind and seismic loads to vertical elements of the lateral force-resisting system, in flexible, rigid, or semirigid ways. ...
Buildings with Rigid Walls and Flexible Roof Diaphragms. I: Evaluation of Current U.S. Seismic Provisions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Buildings having rigid walls and flexible roof diaphragms (RWFD) are a type of building construction widely used for light industry in the United States; they incorporate rigid in-plane concrete or masonry walls and flexible ...
Buildings with Rigid Walls and Flexible Roof Diaphragms. II: Evaluation of a New Seismic Design Approach Based on Distributed Diaphragm Yielding
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A seismic collapse evaluation study of buildings with rigid walls and flexible roof diaphragms (RWFD) presented in the companion paper indicates that this type of structure, as designed to current seismic design provisions ...
