A Complete Guide to Solving Lateral Load Path Problems
The Analysis of Irregular Shaped Structures: Diaphragms and Shear Walls explains how to calculate the forces to be transferred across multiple discontinuities and reflect the design requirements on construction documents. Step-by-step examples offer progressive coverage, from basic to very advanced illustrations of load paths in complicated structures. The book is based on the 2009 International Building Code, ASCE/SEI 7-05, the 2005 Edition of the National Design Specification for Wood Construction, and the 2008 Edition of the Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic (SDPWS-08).
COVERAGE INCLUDES:
Code sections and analysisDiaphragm basicsDiaphragms with end horizontal offsetsDiaphragms with intermediate offsetsDiaphragms with openingsOpen front and cantilever diaphragmsDiaphragms with vertical offsetsComplex diaphragms with combined openings and offsetsStandard shear wallsShear walls with openingsDiscontinous shear wallsHorizontally offset shear wallsThe portal frameRigid moment-resisting frame walls--the frame method of analysis

A complete guide to solving lateral load path problems—fully updated for current practices and regulations
This thoroughly revised guide explains how to calculate the lateral forces to be transferred across multiple diaphragm and shear wall discontinuities. You will get step-by-step examples that offer progressive coverage—from very basic to very advanced illustrations of load paths in complicated structures.
Written by a team of seasoned structural engineers and certified building official, The Analysis of Irregular Shaped Structures: Wood Diaphragms and Shear Walls, Second Edition contains comprehensive explanations of current topics, including cross laminated timber (CLT) which can be used in mass timber construction. You will get thorough coverage of up-to-date structural codes, requirements, and standards and includes newly developed structure types and new design solutions.
Covers new topics of diaphragm solutions including CLT diaphragms and shear walls, a new method for calculating FTAO shear walls, and an expanded discussion on cantilever diaphragm design.Updated to reflect the most recent codes and standards, including, ASCE 7-16, 2021 IBC, and 2021 SDPWS with new CLT diaphragm and shear wall design requirements and guidelines.Written by a team of experienced structural engineers and certified building official.
