What are some creative choices for handling the lateral load in a single story commerical wood frame structure that is 50 by 110 feet? We are considering a clear span using 50' open web trusses every 24 inches. We wish to keep the space as open as possible but some posts in the center are acceptable. We are in San Francisco. The 50' front of the building is a complete glass storefront.
