Problem 3 The diaphragm shown below is subjected to a w, = 5 kN/m and w₂ = 2 kN/m wind load acting in the plan north direction. The w, load is applied over a 10 m length from the bottom left corner of the building. a) What is the shear force in each shear wall if the diaphragm is flexible? (10 marks) Assuming the diaphragm is rigid: b) Find the location of the center of rigidity relative to the bottom left corner of the structure (i.e., blue oval). (4 marks) c) What is the force and torsion that the diaphragm must be designed for? (4 marks) d) What is the shear force in each shear wall? The relative rigidities are provided below. (16 marks) RA=3 E RB = 4 W₁ -30 m- Rc=5 D W2 RD = 2 TI B -18 m- A RE=3 18 m - 18 m- RF = 6
