Use the AWC Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic, 2015 Edition and ASD procedures to answer the following question.A building with a non-structural interior wall is exposed to a transverse load of w = 355 lb/ft. The roof is sheathed with single-layer diagonal lumber sheathing. Is the diaphragm satisfactory in regard to the maximum diaphragm aspect ratio? Let L = 56 ft, a = 40 ft, b = 16 ft, be = 22 ft, and bi = 7 ft.

Use the AWC Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic, 2015 Edition and ASD procedures to answer the following question.A single-story wood-frame building is exposed to a seismic load of wU = 290 lb/ft. For simplicity, assume this load was determined from the load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it, and that the building has no windows or doors. Let L = 52 ft, b = 30 ft, and the height of the walls be 10 ft. The walls are sheathed with 3/8-in.-thick wood structural panels and 6d nails spaced every 6 in. around the panel edges. Is this design adequate for the load?

Use the AWC Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic, 2015 Edition and ASD procedures to answer the following question.A building is exposed to a transverse load of wU = 375 lb/ft due to wind. Assume this load was determined from the ASD load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it. The wood structural panel is 7/16-in. thick 24/16 span-rated sheathing unblocked. Nails are 8d common and spaced every 6 in. at diaphragm boundaries and supported panel edges. Is this design adequate for the transverse load? Let L = 46 ft and b = 30 ft.

Determine the reference withdrawal design value, W, for a smooth shank carbon steel nail or spike with a diameter of 0.192-in. driven into the side grain of a wood member with a specific gravity of 0.44 where the fastener axis is perpendicular to the wood fibers.

Use the AWC Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic, 2015 Edition and ASD procedures to answer the following question.A single-story wood-frame building is exposed to a wind load of wU = 335 lb/ft. For simplicity, assume this load was determined from the load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it, and that the building has no windows or doors. Let L = 36 ft, b = 20 ft, and the height of the walls be 8.5 ft. The walls are sheathed with structural fiberboard. Are the shear walls satisfactory in regard to the maximum shear wall aspect ratio?

An adolescent comes to the clinic for an evaluation. Assessment reveals a possible urinary tract infection. What would the nurse expect to be done to confirm this suspicion?

Determine the dowel bearing strength for a 1/2-in.-diameter bolt in Western Cedars with the load applied parallel to grain.

Determine the reference withdrawal design value, W, for a smooth shank carbon steel nail or spike with a diameter of 0.192-in. driven into the side grain of a wood member with a specific gravity of 0.55 where the fastener axis is perpendicular to the wood fibers.

Use the AWC Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic, 2015 Edition and ASD procedures to answer the following question.A single-story wood-frame building is exposed to a seismic load of wU = 550 lb/ft. For simplicity, assume this load was determined from the load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it, and that the building has no windows or doors. Let L = 28 ft, b = 20 ft, and the height of the walls be 8 ft. The walls are sheathed with 15/32-in.-thick wood structural panels and 8d nails spaced every 6 in. around the panel edges. Is this design adequate for the load?

A building with a non-structural interior wall is exposed to a transverse load of w = 320 lb/ft. Assume this load was determined from the load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it. What is the maximum chord force? Let L = 32 ft, a = 20 ft, b = 12 ft, be = 20 ft, and bi = 7 ft.
