Framing & StructuralCâu 441 / 700
At the ends of a wood-framed shear wall, a hold-down device anchored to the foundation is installed primarily to resist which force?
a.Overturning and uplift at the wall ends during lateral loading
b.Vertical dead load from the roof above
c.In-plane sliding of the whole wall along the sill
d.Thermal expansion of the wood framing
Giải thích
During earthquake or wind loading a shear wall tends to rotate, lifting one end; hold-downs anchor that end to the foundation to resist overturning and uplift. Gravity dead load is carried by studs and plates, sliding is resisted by anchor bolts, and thermal movement is not the function of a hold-down.
