Perforated Wood Shear Wall Design Example

[@DrewSE2024]

Another thing that is often missed with perforated shear walls is the requirement of 4.3.6.1.3 where it says, "each end of each perforated shear wall SEGMENT shall be designed for a compression force, C, in each segment." So you aren't only designing for a compression chord at the end of the wall, but at the end of each segment.

Very good video Engineer thank you

Great video - I think I suggested this as a video and you definitely delivered! This will be very useful for people studying for the SE since it is listed as a topic. As a bridge guy, I had to skip over this topic during my studies.

Maybe one day ill have the courage to do a bridge example Pavan hahaha

Does the Li value apply only to walls with doors or also walls with windows? I try my best not to include doors in shear walls due to the discontinuity of the bottom plate

Great video, as always! Thank you.

[@HungLe-gz3lm]

Great video ! Thank you very much ! Could you make a video example of composite beam with concrete slab on steel deck?

These are often overlooked! Great video.

[@Kestava_Engineering]

they dont get a lot of capacity but are great for smaller structures for sure! everyone just seems to do solid walls and run with that for ease and time. a lil spreadsheet for these walls would be nice to have in the back pocket!

[@KeyganEIT]

Another great video! Thank you Rich!

[@Kestava_Engineering]

Glad you enjoyed it! happy to be back providing these videos!

[@MohamedHaji-k5j]

hey kestava, weeee neeed concrete stuff for your followers elsewhere in the world. great stuff as always.

[@Kestava_Engineering]

I hear you! ive got some concrete lined up that I think youll enjoy!

[@stevenrussell3571]

Great video! Can you provide a wood FTAO design example in another video?

[@Kestava_Engineering]

god those take a bit of time to calc out. let me look into it and see if i can get a problem together!

[@stevenrussell3571]

That would be much appreciated! Keep up the great work!!

[@gourabsarker9552]

Sir how much do you earn now? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.

[@Kestava_Engineering]

Im doing an updated video and short on this soon! keep a lookout for it
