Problem No. 1 (50 points) Given: The shed in the Figure has double 2X6 knee braces on each column to resist the lateral force. Lumber is Southern Pine. The braces are to be connected to the columns with 16d common nails, lateral seismic force to roof diaphragm WEL = 98 plf Height h1 = 9 ft; h2= 2ft. Determine the following: 1. Use ASD analysis and find the required number of Nails for the brace connection for both wet and dry conditions. (use the six modes and Z-equations for this analysis) 2. Use LRFD Analysis and find the required number of Nails for the brace connection for both wet and dry conditions. 3. Repeat part 1) and 2) to determine how the number of nails change if ring shank nails are used with D=0.148 in. and L = 3.5 in. - LATERAL FORCE R A4 COLUMN R PLAN 2- 2x6 BRACES (one EACH SIDE OF COLUMN 45° II COLUMN ELEVATION 16d 4x4 END VIEW
