Report 1: Project Introduction and Building Design DetailsPublished by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, St. Joseph, Michigan www.asabe.org Citation: Paper number 024007, 2002 ASAE Annual Meeting . (doi: 10.13031/2013.10951) @2002Authors: David R. Bohnhoff, Paul A. Boor Keywords: Diaphragm action, Building diaphragm, Diaphragm design, Metal-clad wood-frame buildings, Post-frame buildings, Structural design, Structural analysis This is the first in a series of reports on a study of metal-clad wood-frame diaphragm action in a 40- by 200-foot post-frame building. This study is being jointly sponsored by the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Lester Building Systems of Lester Prairie, MN. In this inaugural report, previous metal-clad wood-frame diaphragm research and current design practices are discussed, the UW & LBS Full-Scale Building Research Initiative is outlined, and structural details for the full-scale test building are presented.
