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 = 48 ft, b = 30 ft, and the height of the walls be 8 ft. The walls are sheathed with 19/32-in.-thick wood structural panels and 10d nails spaced every 6 in. around the panel edges. Is this design adequate for the load?
