Given: The single-story wood-frame building in Fig. 10.A. The critical lateral wind force in the longitudinal direction is given. Sheathing is -in. STRUCTURAL I with 8d common nails.

Find:

a. The unit shear in the shear segment along Line 1.

b. The required nailing for the shearwall along Line 1.

c. The net maximum uplift force at the base of the wall along Line 1. Consider the resisting moment provided by the weight of the wall (assume no roof load frames into longitudinal walls). Wall dead load D 20 psf.

d. Are the proportions of the shear segment in the above wall within the limits given in the IBC?
