3. Diaphragm anchorage:
Lateral forces acting perpendicular to the wall will tend to separate the
wall from the horizontal diaphragm.
Must provide a positive anchorage system connecting masonry walls
to diaphragms, shown above as the "specially designed anchor".
This anchorage must resist:
Wind forces on wall element.
Seismic force normal to the wall using UBC '97 Eqn 32-2.
According to '97 UBC 1633.2.81:

9. Story drift, D:
According to '97 UBC 1630.10.2, the maximum in
elastic displacement DM, should not exceed .025h for
structures with T < .7 seconds.
A serviceability consideration.
DM is a strength level inelastic displacement due
to a design earthquake.
DM = .7RDS where R is from Tabe 16-N
and DS is static story drift due to
strength-level forces.
Consider the following calculation for the 50' shear wall:
