Update from 2019: Lateral Load Transfer From Diaphragms to Resisting Elements [E5]

Let's revisit the analysis of loads passing through diaphragms and collectors to the lateral load-resisting system, highlighting aspects of these systems that were not covered in the 2019 NASCC: The Steel Conference seminar. We'll present practical design examples, focusing on critical connections and the proper application of the diaphragm-specific provisions of ASCE 7, and discuss when and how to incorporate horizontal steel truss diaphragms.
