    PORCH DECK DIAPHGRAGM

    I have a 16' x 20' deck with 2x6 lumber flat supported on joists that are supported on beams. A wood frame is at one end and concrete shear walls are at the other. Glass panel railing is at the perimeter of the porch and large wind pressures result (V=105 mph). How are the lateral pressures...

    Eccentric Continuous Wall Footings

    I have kept the foundation at 18" because this building is built adjacent to exiting building with foundations at the same depth. Correct, the CMU wall along this line, a total of 20 ft long, is the most eccentric element. The glulalm spacing is 10ft, one beam at each end of the wall and one...

    Eccentric Continuous Wall Footings

    Currently, I am approaching this by treating designing the footing to span to a combined footing at the glulam/girder locations which are tied via strap footing back to interior column footings. The footing between these locations is resisting the eccentric load by torsional resistance of the...

    Eccentric Continuous Wall Footings

    I have attached the requested section. My original request though is a free body diagram of how the slab on grade is utilized to restrain the eccentric wall footing from rotating. How do eccentric walls perform when subjected to lateral load - wind and seismic. Thanks again...

    Eccentric Continuous Wall Footings

    I have a two-story masonry wall on a property line and it is to be supported via an eccentric footing. I have read other threads, but could someone post the mechanics (sketch of free body diagragm) of utilizing the slab adjacent to the resist the rotation. Does increase in footing width help...
