Determine the reference withdrawal design value, W, for a lag screw with a diameter of 7/16-in. inserted in the side grain of a wood member with a specific gravity of 0.35 where the fastener axis is perpendicular to the wood fibers.

Use the AWC Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic, 2015 Edition and ASD procedures to answer the following question.A building with a non-structural interior wall is exposed to a transverse load of w = 215 lb/ft. The roof is sheathed with double-layer diagonal lumber sheathing. Is the diaphragm satisfactory in regard to the maximum diaphragm aspect ratio? Let L = 52 ft, a = 40 ft, b = 12 ft, be = 20 ft, and bi = 7 ft.

A building with a non-structural interior wall and an opening is exposed to a transverse load of w = 295 lb/ft. Assume this load was determined from the load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it. What is the collector force at the edge of the opening (point A)? Let L = 54 ft, a = 40 ft, b = 14 ft, be = 40 ft, and bi = 13 ft, bo = 15.5 ft.

Use the AWC Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic, 2015 Edition and ASD procedures to answer the following question.A building is exposed to a transverse load of wU = 375 lb/ft due to wind. Assume this load was determined from the ASD load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it. The wood structural panel is 7/16-in. thick 24/16 span-rated sheathing unblocked. Nails are 8d common and spaced every 6 in. at diaphragm boundaries and supported panel edges. Is this design adequate for the transverse load? Let L = 40 ft and b = 20 ft.

A building with a non-structural interior wall is exposed to a transverse load of w = 310 lb/ft. Assume this load was determined from the load combinations, i.e. do not apply the load combinations to it. What is the maximum chord force? Let L = 44 ft, a = 30 ft, b = 14 ft, be = 30 ft, and bi = 10 ft.
