ANALYSIS
The subdiaphragms comply with 2.5:1 of max. length-to-width rario. (Sec.1620.2.1,IBC 2000)
The wall anchor force is given by IBC Sec. 1620.1.7, 1620.2.1 & 1604.8.2 as
468 plf
Where : F
min
= 200 plf
(IBC Sec.1604.8.2)
Note: the cofficient in Eq 16-64 was revised from 1.2 to 0.8 as a result of voting during the 2001 public
hearing on the 2000 IBC.
Wood subdiaphragm shear :
= 278 plf, for ASD
< v
allowable
Satisfactory to use diaphragm nailing for subdiaphragm.
Chord force :
= 3.90 k, (Indicated force has NOT been reduced for ASD)
Reaction force :
= 9.36 k
(Indicated force has NOT been reduced for ASD)
Subdiaphragm Design based on IBC 2000
