Diaphragm Deflection Design Example | BY HAND | Structural Engineering

[@elbahja03]

Just passed my PE structural (CBT) and wanted to thank you for your help and wish everybody here good luck!

Congrats.

Any chance you remember how many wood questions there was? I never worked wood and not sure if it’s worth studying from scratch.

[@elbahja03]

@@raffiart5121 Every exam is different, mine had 3 or 4 wood questions as far as I remember, but yours could have more or less, it was very straightforward, just follow design procedures from NDS and you should be fine, this channel has very useful wood design examples that will help you understand the concepts, I suggest you go over them, good luck!

Great job!

[@Kestava_Engineering]

Simo with the BIG compliment - thanks!

I’m taking my PE structural exam in May! Love your channel!

[@Kestava_Engineering]

Good luck!!

Cd factor does not need to be applied to diaphragm deflection. Cd factor accounts for the inelastic behavior associated with the vertical lateral system, not the horizontal diaphragm. Good example tho

[@brandonwenger9008]

Could you please do a quick video on the "Middle Third" rule for determining bearing pressure in a foundation element. This was needed for a problem in the PE Structural practice exam, but I cannot find any reference for the rule.

[@gopinath.l6963]

Can you please let me know how this value can validate against software shown values..hope it will help many

[@hamzaahmad3898]

what if diaphragm is made of reinforced concrete, then how will you calculate Ga and it's deflection
