Abstract

ABSTRACT Lateral loads were applied to a full-scale post-frame building to analyze diaphragm action of the roof. The building was constructed and loaded in four stages of steel sheathing application to determine the effect that steel sheathing fastened to the building has in reducing eave deflections of a laterally loaded post-frame building. Comparisons were made between actual deflections and deflections predicted by a diaphragm design procedure.
