CLT Diaphragm Design for Wind and Seismic Resistance

Using SDPWS 2021 and ASCE 7-16 Cross-laminated timber (CLT) has become increasingly prominent in building construction and can be seen in buildings worldwide (Figure 1). Specifically, CLT floor and roof panels have become relatively commonplace as a primary gravity force-resisting component. Now, with the availability of the 2021 Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic (SDPWS […]
