I am trying to find a current table that gives the allowable shear per anchor bolt with multiple bolts under shear walls in the wood to concrete contection. It used to the called out in an old UBC and is not even listed in the NSD. Beyer's book gives a formula and tells you to use the multiple...
I am doing an analysis of a wood-framed rigid diaphragm and I am trying to find the value for da, the displacement of the tie-down or deflection at highest allowable design load. The Simpson Company publishes some but not all of their holdown and strap values. Does anyone know a source for the...
I am doing an analysis of a wood-framed rigid diaphragm and I am trying to find the chord anchorage slip of various holdowns and straps. The Simpson Company supplies some but not all of their holdown and strap values. Does anyone know a source for these values? Do you engineering each strap...
I am trying to do an analysis of a rigid diaphragm and I am trying to find the chord anchorage slip of various holdowns and straps. The Simpson Company supplies the slip deflection value for some but not all of their products. Does anyone know a source for these values? Does everyone...
I am trying to do an analysis of a rigid diaphragm and I am trying to find the chord anchorage slip of various holdowns and straps. The Simpson Company supplies the slip deflection value for some of their hardware, but not all. Does anyone know a source for these values, such as ST, MST, PHD...
Does anyone know how to calculate the story drift on a building grid line whose only lateral force resisting members are post caps, such as Simpson PC or EPC caps, and the grid line does not contain any other type of shear wall?
I just found a lateral engineering software that appears to be a new product, at lateralpro.com, has anyone used it before and would they recommend it? I do structural engineering for homes or small commercial structures and I would like to find a software product that is easy to use. I have...
