DIAPHRAGM FORCES

  1. Applied diaphragm forces (define diaphragm using semi-rigid option)


1.- Display any stress or shell force for the relevant load case




2.-For maximum chord forces, Draw or define a section cut where maximum chord forces are expected




3.- Moments in Z are the in-plane moment in slab make sure angle is zero, refresh as required


4.- The value of Z moment divided by slab width is equal to compression and tension chord forces




5.- Shear and collector forces at slab-shear wall connection , draw or define section cut next to support following wall direction


6.- Make sure angle is zero, in this case shear/collector force is equal to F2 or 2559lbs as expected
