Roof Diaphragm Reinforcing
Roof Diaphragm Reinforcing
(OP)
I have a roof diaphragm that has chord forces that are larger than the deck attachment can resist. Does anyone know of a cost effective way to reinforced the diaphragm other that adding more frames?

Could you describe a bit how you are calculating "chord forces" in your deck-to-chord connections? I'm not sure I follow what your issue is.
