WEBINAR ON DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR COLD-FORMED STEEL LIGHT FRAME DIAPHRAGMS
Presented by Reynald Serrette, Ph.D.
Santa Clara University
April 9, 2020 - 3:00 pm EDT
This webinar will cover the basic design of cold-formed steel light frame diaphragms as envisioned in the provisions articulated in AISI S100-16, North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members, 2016 Edition; AISI S230-19, North American Standard for Cold-Formed Steel Framing―Prescriptive Method for One- and Two-Family Dwellings, 2019 Edition; AISI S400-15 w/S1-16, North American Standard for Seismic Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Systems, 2015 Edition with Supplement 1; and AISI S240-15, North American Standard for Cold-Formed Steel Structural Framing, 2015 Edition. Design practice documents derived from these AISI Standards will also be addressed. At the conclusion of this webinar, design professionals will have a better understanding of current provisions that support engineered design (strength and deflection) of conventional codebased light frame cold-formed steel diaphragms as well as the limitations of these provisions.

NOTICE: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are taking extra steps to ensure that all participants can view CFSEI webinars while practicing social distancing. If you usually view CFSEI webinars in a group format, such as a conference room, please provide us with the names and email addresses of all attendees from your company on the registration form. We will provide a unique link for each individual and notify them individually so they can view the webinars in an isolated setting. We will continue to register groups in this way for the foreseeable future. Thank you for taking this extra step in the registration process. If you have any questions, please contact CFSEI at [email protected].
