About this document
Wood Shear Wall Deflection Analysis by Franklin Garcia is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides instructions for entering data to calculate the deflection of a wood shear wall or diaphragm. It includes the parameters to enter such as wood species and grade, panel thickness, nail size and spacing, boundary element properties, and maximum shear loads. Equations are shown to calculate deflection due to bending, shear, nail deformation, and chord splice slip. Sample data is entered for a hem-fir shear wall and Douglas fir-larch diaphragm as examples.
