Net uplift on shear wall
Net uplift on shear wall
(OP)
I am trying to figure out some calculations but I have run into a problem on the shear walls on a flexible diaphragm. In reviewing this engineers work he came up with the following values. Total shear panel length=13.5' panel length=6' Vasd=75.6 wall hieght=8' Motm=3628.8 uniform load=300lbs Mresist'g.=2160 asd net uplift=108 He has the the formula net uplift=motm-.9Mr/L in the column for net uplift. However, when I plug in the numbers I do not come up with the 108. Can anyone help to show me how he came up with this number? He also has the shear panel marked for 4x4 posts. This is in California if that makes a difference.
