FOREWARD

his manual is in continuity with the First, Second, and Third Editions of the Steel Deck Institute Diaphragm
T Design Manual and is based on research, testing and analysis done at West Virginia University since
1965. That work, sponsored by the Steel Deck Institute and its member and associate member companies,
was under the direction of Dr. Larry Luttrell, P.E., who is the technical advisor to the Steel Deck Institute.
The Institute is very grateful to Dr. Luttrell for his untiring efforts and ongoing interest in this subject.

This SDI Diaphragm Design Manual, 4th Edition, updates, expands upon, and replaces the 50/ Diaphragm Design
Manual, 3rd Edition (2004), as the main steel deck industry manual on steel roof and floor deck diaphragm
design. The Manual explains the method developed to calculate the capacity of diaphragms made with bare
steel decks and filled steel decks and the use of the diaphragm capacity tables. This Manual was developed
to conform to the requirements of the ANSI/AISI S310-13, North American Standard for the Design of Profiled
Steel Diaphragm Panels. This new Standard reflects years of work by members of the AISI Committee on
Specifications and particularly the work of the AISI Subcommittee on Diaphragms, chaired by John Mattingly,
P.E .. The Institute is very grateful to Mr. Mattingly for his tireless efforts and leadership in making the Standard
a reality. The SDI recommends that the user of this Manual obtain a copy of this Standard, which is available
as a free download from the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI), and refer to it when using this Manual.

This manual also conforms to the ANSI/SOl RD-201 0 Standard for Steel Roof Deck, the ANSI/SDI NC-201 0
Standard for Non-Composite Steel Floor Deck and the ANSI/SOl C-2011 Standard for Composite Steel Floor Deck-
Slabs Standards. The SDI recommends that the user of this Manual obtain a copy of these Standards and refer
to them when using this Manual. All SDI Standards are available for free download from the SDI website.

Also helpful and available to the user of this Manual are the 50/ Roof Deck Design Manual (RDDM)
and 50/ Floor Deck Design Manual (FDDM). Their concurrent use with this Manual is recommended.

The diaphragm tables have been developed for ease of use either for Allowable Strength Design (ASD) or for Load
and Resistance Fac.:tor Design (LRFD). Values in the tables must either be divided by a safety ft:~ctor or multiplied by a
resistance factor before they can be compared with the loads calculated with the corresponding design approach.

While conforming to the requirements of the Standards, this Manual also provides recommendations
of good design practices that may either not be included in the Standard or may exceed the minimum
requirements of the Standard. When recommended practice is beyond the minimum requirements of
the Standard, this will be noted. In all instances, the design of steel roof and floor deck as a component of a
building or other structure is within the scope of practice of a Licensed Professional Engineer or Architect, and
all liability for compliance with building code requirements is the responsibility of that Designer. Professional
judgment must be exercised when the user applies the data or recommendations contained in this Manual.

This Manual describes the use of steel deck diaphragms in common applications. Steel deck can be
used in applications that are not covered within the scope of this Manual. The use of deck in these
alternate applications may be permitted under provisions included in the applicable building code.

Where this Manual or other SDI publications refer to "Designer:' this means the entity that is responsible to the
Owner for the overall structural design of the project, including the steel deck. This is usually the Structural Engineer
of Record; however, it may be the Architect or other Licensed Professional acting within the scope of their license.

Section 1.1 Introduction

Shear diaphragms are essentially planar structural systems such as those found in the
roofs, floors, and walls of buildings. They are comprised of interconnected smaller units
attached to supporting members, such that the assemblies possess both in-plane shear
strength and stiffness. Diaphragm design addresses the issue of selecting materials
and designing connections such that the system can serve the function of transmitting
in-plane forces.

Figure 1.1 - Diaphragm Components

Figure 1.1 illustrates the basic concept for a group of diaphragms; the principle one being
the roof plane. The exploded view shows walls of length t onto which pressures act. A
line load can be delivered to the roof plane by any wall. The roof shown may be viewed as
a simple horizontal girder of depth b, with its end reactions provided by distributed shears
along b at the wall intersection. Though it might be quite rigid and different from the roof,
the end wall itself acts as a diaphragm between the roof and foundation levels.

The most basic design problem is illustrated in Figure 1.2 where the "short-deep beam"
or diaphragm transmits the load Oe and Ow to the side walls. R then becomes O.SL(Ow
+ Oe). From the shape of the shear diagram, five items are apparent:

1- 3 SECTION 1 I INTRODUCTION
1. The maximum average shearS = R/b is at the end.
2. Zones nearer mid-span may have smaller shears and thus less diaphragm
strength is required.
3. Diaphragm design strength can be varied by using combinations of heavier and
thinner de.ck panels and heavier and lighter fastening patterns.
4. Efficient use of materials may not be met by using a single diaphragm design for
the entire roof area.
5. The diaphragm is a short-deep beam.

Figure 1.2 - Roof Diaphragm

The structure illustrated in Figure 1.1 shows none of the roof supporting elements.
However, such elements are important components of the diaphragm in that they act as
stiffeners, similar to stiffeners in thin-web girders. Such elements protect the zone from
general buckling. In addition, members with suitable connections to carry the flange
forces must always bound diaphragms.

The behavior of a diaphragm is dependent on the types of panels used, the methods of
attachment, and tne geometry of the described area. It may be determined either from full
scale testing or from the identified behavior of its component parts.

Section 1.2 Applicable Deck Types
The design recommendations in this manual are limited to properly interconnected
diaphragm panels having thicknesses between 0.014 inches and 0.075· inches for
panel depths between the nominal limits of 1/2 inches and 3 inches, or between
0.034 inches and 0.075 inches for panel depths greater than 3 inches and less
than or equal to 7-1/2 inches. The maximum deck pitch is 12 inches. These
limitations are found in AISI S31 0, Section D.

Included are common roof and floor deck sections described in the SDI "Roof Deck
Design Manual" and "Floor Deck Design Manual", along with other deck sections that are
available from deck manufacturers.

Section 1.3 Connections


Given that the influence of panel geometry has been established, the more critical
remaining parameters are those describing fasteners and how they perform. Fasteners
commonly include welds, screws, and power driven nail-like fasteners (power actuated
fasteners). The two most essential pieces of information for any fastener are reliable
values for its strength and stiffness. Fasteners are described in Sections 9 and 9A.

Section 1.4 Design Considerations


This manual addresses those factors affecting the strength and stiffness of a diaphragm
assembly. The formulas for diaphragm design values are based on a very large number
of tests made in the laboratories at West Virginia University and in other laboratories over
a period of over 40 years. Sections 2, 3, 4, 9 and 9A show the development of
strength formulas, stiffness formulas, and properties of selected fasteners.

Section 10 contain a series of example problems addressing the issue of .


analysis and design. Sections 11 and 12 contain design load tables for diaphragms
used to resist wind and seismic loads or other forces. The load tables show the
nominal (unfactored) strength of the diaphragm and need to be divided by the
Safety Factor for Allowable Strength Design (ASD) or multiplied by the Resistance
Factor for Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD), similar to the method used
in the AISC 360 Specification for Structural Steel Buildings.

Deep Deck and Cellular Diaphragms

Deck deeper than 3 inches and cellular deck can be used as either unfilled or concrete
filled diaphragms·. Design information and examples can be found in the SOl White
Paper, "Deeper Steel Deck and Cellular Diaphragms" (Luttrell, 2005).

Section 1.5.2 Perforated Deck Diaphragms

Deck which is perforated for acoustical or other purposes can be used as a diaphragm.
Provisions for this application are found in AISI S31 0. Additional information can be found
in the SOl White Paper, " Perforated Metal Deck Diaphragm Design" (Luttrell, 2011 ).

Section 1.5.3 Diaphragms with Skew Walls

The majority of published diaphragm design examples present rectangular buildings to


illustrate basic design methods and principles. However, buildings with skew walls, such
as that illustrated below are common.

For additional information, including examples, refer to SOl "Diaphragm Analysis with
Skew Walls" (2014).

Section 1.5.4 Steel Deck Diaphragms on Cold-Formed Steel Framing

Steel deck on cold-formed steel roof or floor framing can be designed as a diaphragm.
Because of the thin nature of the support framing, screws are used for fastening, and
the limit states checked for the fastener must include the behavior of the fastener in the
supporting member. Examples SA and 58 in AISI 0310 show the design of a
diaphragm for this condition. The diaphragm load tables contained in this manual do not
consider this limit state.

Section 1.5.5 Attached Non-Steel Panels


Systematic attachment of rigid flat panels to the top corrugations of a diaphragm can
increase both diaphragm strength and stiffness. Such panels can include mineral boards
or other flat panel units suitable to receive an upper finish. Properly located c;~ttachments

through the panels and into the tops of deck corrugations, particularly on the diaphragm
perimeter, limit warping and increase shear stiffness. The flat elements themselves
provide additional shear transfer paths. Testing may be required for determining system
shear values.

Section 2.1 Diaphragm Strength

The diaphragm is assembled to cover a specified area in such a way as to possess both
predictable in-plane shear strength and stiffness. The principle elements are the supporting
frame, the covering panels, and the interconnecting devices or fasteners. It can be a fairly
flexible system somewhat analogous to a truss as in Fig. 2.1-1. Prior to installing the
truss diagonal or attaching the diaphragm, neither of the frames possess much strength.

In Fig. 2.1-1, R = Pxa/b where P is an external load acting along b. The truss diagonal force
is made up of two components, P and R such that the average shear parallel· to b is P/b, and
the average shear parallel to a is R/a =P/b. Presuming edge members to have small changes
in length, the average shear in the diaphragm also is P/b both horizontally and vertically.

Unattached panels may not possess the ability to resist equal unit forces in perpendicular
directions. However, when they are part of the diaphragm system, including perimeter
members, the individual corrugations are held in position by end attachments and the
corrugations are not free to close.

The shear strength of a diaphragm system can be limited by the strength of connections, local
buckling in the panels, or by general plate-like buckling of the whole diaphragm area.

Section 2.2 Fastener Limitations


Consider the simple diaphragm in Fig. 2.2-1 where three panels are represented. The panels
may be connected to the support frame by structural connections having strength Ot along any
structural member. Stitch or side-lap connections having a strength Os may be installed along
the dashed lines to form sheet-to-sheet connections away from cross supports.

The magnitudes of the Fp and Fe forces are difficult to define in terms of Ot at the edge. As shear
forces increase, yield can develop around edge fasteners and thus allow Fp and Fe to increase
toward their yield 'values. However, they conservatively are presumed to be related linearly to
Ot through their position from the centerline similar to the distribution shown in Fig. 2.2-2. Then:

Section 2.3 Stability Limitations

The probability of plate-like shear buckling, producing diagonal waves across the whole
diaphragm, is small for most common installations. For thin diaphragms, with small
depth h and relatively long spans Lv, buckling may result when the fasteners are closely
spaced. Such behavior has been noted in diaphragms 0.0179 inches and thinner, in
some thin WR type panel profiles, and in certain 0.0295 inch diaphragms with very
closely spaced sidelap connections and where larger than usual Lv values were involved.

In two span diaphragms, the central support does little to limit wave formation, but when larger
numbers of spans are used, the interior purlins do limit buckling. For relatively ideal
corrugated diaphragms, Easley (1970) has presented an approach to the critical shear load.

(Eqn.2.3-1)

Where:
L= panel length
t = panel base steel thickness
I= panel moment of inertia, per width w
d= panel corrugation pitch (see Figure 2.3-1)
s= developed flute width per width d = 2(e + w) + f
test based measure of connection end restraint

That approach was modified in previous DDM editions, conservatively treating the
limiting case as being controlled by two end spans, resulting in a critical load in US units:

2- 11 SECTION 2 I DIAPHRAGM STRENGTH


A review of existing test data by Nunna (2011) showed that the modified Easley equation
was overly conservative and permitted a recalibration of the buckling limit state while
maintaining a factor of safety of 2.0. The recalibrated equation is based on the original
Easley equation and used a (3 = 1.07. (Note that the value of (3 in previous editions of the
Di~phmgm IJAsign ManLJal (DDM, 2004) was 1. 75). The Nunna equation predicts a
strength that is 2.4 times that of earlier editions. Further discussion of the previous
assumptions can be found in Section 2.3 of DDM03 and the Commentary to AISI S310.

Section 2.6 Limiting Conditions


The quality of a diaphragm can be limited by inattention to detail, particularly at edge and
end terminations.

End Laps

At interior positions, panels must be sufficiently overlapped to provide adequate end


distances for the .connector used. A minimum end distance for fasteners used should be
one inch, which requires an end lap not less than two inches; however, lesser
dimensions may be permitted by the applicable fastener provisions in AISI 8100.
Staggered end laps are not recommended and staggered end laps will not increase the
strength or stiffness of the diaphragm. Care must be exercised in making connections
through multiple layers of deck at the panel corners on the end lap. If panels are butted at
their ends rather than end lapped, as is common with floor decks, then each panel must be
individually connected at its ends with the specified pattern.

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 2- 14


Sidelaps

The overlapping edges of panels should be in close contact to allow minimum eccentricity on
fasteners in the lap. When stitch fasteners connect adjacent panels between supports,
equivalent or superior fasteners should be used on the edgemost panel at the diaphragm
perimeter. Otherwise, shear strength along the first interior sidelap may exceed that along
the perimeter member and thus diminish the contribution of the stitch fasteners.

Connections

The diaphragm shear strength and stiffness is highly dependent upon its connections. The
connection type, quantity, location and quality are just some of the variables that influence the
capacity. For considerations applicable to each fastener type, refer to Section 4.

Split Panels

Finishing out a diaphragm at its edge may require a split panel at what usually is a higher shear
zone in the structure. Formulas of this section may be used to evaluate this special case
noting the partial panel width, w. Such a partial panel should be connected in every valley at
all supports, regardless of adjacent fastener patterns. Extra stitch connectors should
be considered at the split panel side lap. An example of design of a diaphragm with a split
panel is found in AISI 0310, Example 1B.

Longitudinal Edges

In applications where joists terminate on a shear wall, the edge-most diaphragm panel may not
contact the wall. If intermediate stitch fasteners have been required on side laps, similar
intermediate fasteners must exist at the edge. These can be accommodate~ by installing a
block-like spacer on the wall, to match the joist elevation, and then making connections to the
block. A "collecting angle" may also be used as in Example Problem 6A of Section 10.

Mixed Panel Lengths

When decks are installed with multiple spans, occasional shorter panels may be required. In a
large diaphragm area, the shear strength can be determined satisfactorily by using the typical
three span panel length.

Load Tables

Design load tables, based on Section 2 formulas, are given in Sections 11 and 12 for typical
Steel Deck Institute profiles. The table headings describe the means of connection, the panel
width and thickness, span lengths Lv, and the fastening pattern. The "Sidelap" column in any
table gives the number of stitch or intermediate connections between structural supports. The
tabular values are nominal strength values that need to be modified by the appropriate
resistance factor (LRFD) or factor of safety (ASD) for design purposes. The tables are based
on a rational assumption for strength and conservative assumption for stiffness of a "three or
more" span condition.

Section 3.1 Diaphragm Stiffness

The stiffness of a diaphragm is a direct indication of how it distorts under the influence of
shear forces in its own plane. The need to know such movement is partic.ularly important
when assessing the transfer of forces, through a diaphragm, between adjacent frames or
shear walls.

The stiffness of a diaphragm may be measured by testing an assembly such as that in Fig .
3.1-1 . As the load P increases, the shear deflection 8. is noted. The average shear strain in
the system is y = IJJa, while the average shear stress within the diaphragm is -r- =P/(Lt).
Following the classic definition for shear modulus:

Since the diaphragm is not a thick, flat plate, its stiffness is not linear with the thickness t.
Noting that the average shear in Fig. 3.3-1 is equal either along the panel direction or across
the panels:

S = P = .R = Pa _!_ (Eqn. 3.1-2)


l a l a

Then the stiffness G' is defined within the linear test range of P vs. L'l as:

G'= Gt = p !!.._=Pall (Eqn . 3.1-3)


l L'l L'l

Typical values for G' in 0.03 inches thick material may be on the order of 50 kips/inch,
depending on the deck profile and intensity of the connection pattern used. This translates to
2
an effective modulus G = G'/t = 1667 kips/inch , well below that of the base material G =
2
11300 kips/inch . Roof diaphragms may routinely be an order of magnitude more flexible
than flat continuous plates of similar thickness.

Section 3.2 Factors Affecting Stiffness


Consider a corrugated element, as in Figure 3.2-1, to represent a unit width of a diaphragm. As
the forces P are applied parallel to the edges, shear displacements 85 ensue. The end closure
prohibits changes in the cell geometry through the presence of a restraint P1 and the cell is in
virtually pure shear around its girth. Were the end closure effect removed while maintaining P
at a fixed level, relaxation would occur through warping and 05 would increase to Os + od as
shown . For the whole system, !J.5 represents the sum of all warping relaxations. Then G' could
be expressed as:

G'= Pall (Eqn. 3.2-1)


{ls +{lei

The introduction ~f discrete connections at panel side laps further increases the deflection
relaxation under load by an amount of !J.c such that:

Section 3.3 Stiffness Coefficients


The slip coefficient, C, depends on the shear forces directly at the sidelaps, which, in
turn, depend on the number and location of fasteners in the panel. For the entire
width of a diaphragm:

np. ns = see Section 2.2 for definition
E = modulus of elasticity

It is noted that C depends only on L once a particular profile has been selected and its
thickness and fastener arrangement established.

The warping coefficients Dn measure the warping relaxation at the ends of the diaphragm
panels. The warping is smaller with frequently spaced end connections and impact
diaphragms less when sheets are longer.

The solution for Dn may involve a mixture of warping constants D depending on fastener
arrangements at panel ends. Luttrell (1981) presents a detailed solution forD values. D-values
for warping are given in Table 3.3-2 for the more common 1.5 inch WR, IR, NR, and 3 inch DR

Section 4.1 Connections

The major parts comprising a diaphragm are the deck panels, the structural members to which
they are connected, and the connecting devices or fasteners. The fastener types include welds,
screws, power actuated fasteners, or other mechanical devices having predictable
performance. The strength and stiffness of a diaphragm depend on the panel properties, the
span arrangements, and the connection quality. Changes from one type of connector to
another affect the diaphragm response only to the degree that connections now exhibit
different strengths and stiffnesses. Thus it is essential to know both the fastener shear strength
and shear stiffness.

For diaphragm fasteners, the following definitions are used:

Structural Connection: A fastener connecting one or more sheets to heavier frame or


structural members. Values for it are indicated by a subscript "f'.

Side-lap (or Stitch) Connection: A fastener connecting adjacent panels to each other
but not connecting to the frame members. Values are denoted by a subscript "s".

Superior fastener performance ensues when connected parts are in close contact, thus
keeping shear eccentricity to a minimum. Individual fastener tests are made by assembling
elements as in Figure 4.1 and testing in accordance with AISI S905. Fasteners are installed
as dictated by specifications and the system loading. During the loading sequence, both the
strength and slip are noted.

The test assembly may involve light gage material of similar thicknesses, representing a
side-lap or stitch connection, leading to:
Os = Side-lap connector strength
Ss = Side-lap connector flexibility

When the test specimen involves a thinner unit attached to a heavier unit, representing a
structural member:
Ot = Structural connector strength
St = Structural connector flexibility

In Sections 2 and 3 of this Manual, fastener shear strength values were designated as Q and

Pnt = Nominal shear strength (resistance) of a support connection


Pns =Nominal shear strength (resistance) of a side-lap connection
St = Structural support connection flexibility
Ss = Side-lap connection flexibility

Groups of tests are conducted to establish repeatability and the influence of such variables as
sheet thickness and yield strength. Cross checks then may be made against full scale
diaphragm tests. Given that different fastener types have differing stiffness and strength
values, one-on-one substitutions may not be possible. The different fastener types may be
selected on cost, reliability, or workforce qualifications.

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 4- 4


Section 4.2.1 Arc-Spot Welds
Arc-spot welds, or puddle welds, are produced by striking an arc on the upper sheet, forcing a
hole to form, while the lower unit is being raised to fusion temperature. With the attainment of
proper temperature, the electrode is moved in a pattern until the hole is filled and fusion
attained on the arc-puddle perimeter. The relative strength, in a series of welds, can be varied
significantly by modest changes in welding times.

In arc-spot welds made without washers, the material strength, Fu. may not have
great significance especially when it is below 60 ksi. The welding operation raises
sheet temperatures until metallurgical changes result near the weld impairing strength built
in either by cold rolling or other controlled means.

Additional information on arc welds can be found in Section 3.2 of the SOl ROOM and FOOM.

Arc-Spot Welds to Structural Members

The welding of thinner sheet materials to heavy structural units requires tight contact between
the units for proper heat transfer. Further, a proper balance between the welding time and the
electrode burn-off rate is essential to good quality welding. Typically, connections in
diaphragms are through a single thickness over interior supports in each panel and in interior
flutes. However, multiple thickness connections occur in these diaphragm configurations at
side-laps or end-laps. Increased welding times may be required at points of multiple thickness.

The AISI S310 Standard uses weld strength equations from the AISI S100 Standard, which are
found in Section 01.1.1 of AISI S31 0.

Arc-Spot Weld Quality Control

Welding machine power settings required usually are well below those needed for welding in
hot-rolled steels. Typically, E60XX or E?OXX welding electrodes are used, with 5/32-inch
diameter rods. The time required per weld may vary between 3 to 6 seconds or more
depending on the properties of parts being connected. Heavier substrates require more
welding time but increased power settings may burn out the panel faster than electrode
material can be deposited.

4- 5 SECTION 4 I CONNECTIONS
A preliminary field quality check can be made by placing a pair of welds in adjacent valleys at
one end of a panel. The opposite end of the panel can be rotated, within the panel plane,
placing the welds in shear, and continued rotation can lead to separation. This torsional test is
similar to the arc spot weld qualification test found in Clause 4 of AWS 01.3.

Separation, leaving no apparent external perimeter distress, but occurring at the sheet-to-
structure plane, may indicate insufficient welding time and poor fusion with the substrate.
Failure around the external weld perimeter, showing distress within the panel but the weld still
attached to the substrate, indicates a higher quality weld. The end of the welding operation
may not permit complete fusion on the whole perimeter. Based on testing that was performed
to develop the design provisions in SOl DDM01 , DDM02, and DDM03, fusion should be visible
over no less than three-quarters of the weld perimeter. Local interpretation of code
requirements may require more stringent criteria.

Side-Lap Welds

In adjacent diaphragm panels with nestable or flat overlapping edges, sheet-to-sheet or stitch
connections may be required away from supporting members. The placement of arc spot welds
at such side-laps is difficult; the thinner the material, the more difficult the welding
operation. Welding of side-laps is not recommended for material of 0.0295 inches or thinner. It
is quite likely that welding in such thin materials will lead to a hole, which is to be expected, but
the perimeter must be fused.

The AISI S31 0 provides side lap weld strength equations in Section 01 .2.1 for arc spot welds,
Section 01 .2.2 for fillet welds, Section 01.2.3 for flare groove welds, and 01.2.4 for arc top
seam welds.

Section 4.2.2 Welds With Washers


The weld washer functions as a heat sink allowing hole formation in thinner panels, without
excessive growth of the hole, as substrate temperature is increased. The washer subsequently
is filled with the weld stem growing into the substrate and anchored on the washer's hole
perimeter. As the weld metal cools and contracts, the washer is clamped down on the attached
sheet. Weld washers are recommended for panels thinner than 0.0280 inches.

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 4- 6


Extensive studies involving washers of various thicknesses, with different hole sizes, and used
on various types of sheet steel have been conducted at West Virginia University. An efficiency
study involving washers of several different thicknesses has indicated that 0.060 inches thick
washers are best suited for typical operations. During the welding process, the sheet
temperature reaches elevated values over an area significantly larger than the weld stem. This
leads to local relief of cold-work stresses locked in during panel forming operations. For Fu
values between 60 ksi and 120 ksi, no significant influence of Fu was found and the material
near the weld behaved as if it were fully relieved.

Nominal 5/8-inch diameter arc-spot weld of good quality are more efficiently obtained in metals
thicker than 0.0280 inches than are welds through washers. Thus washers are not
recommended for panels having thicknesses of 0.0280 inches or greater. In no cases should
washers be used at interior side-laps.

Section 4.2.3 Weld Flexibilities


The amount of slip or movement experienced as welds are shear loaded in thin steel elements
is very small relative to that for most mechanical connectors. The movement essentially is
limited to panel distortion around the weld. The flexibility factors for both arc spot welds and
welds through washers are based on the equations found in former versions of the SOl
Diaphragm Design Manual (Luttrell, 2004) and are found in Section 05.2.1 of AISI S310 for
both welds to supports and side-laps.

Section 4.3.1 Screw Connections


Screw connections may be either self-drilling types or self-tapping types that require a
drilled hole for installation. The most commonly used structural screws are No. 12 and No. 14
sizes and smaller No. 8's and No. 1O's are routinely used for side-lap connections. The
structural screw shear strength is dependent on both the screw diameter, and the
thickness and material strength of the connected sheets.

For stitch connections between sheets at the side-laps, a different performance ensues. The
screw, not being anchored into a thicker more rigid element, tilts over and thus is more flexible.
Its strength may be limited by bearing-tearing in the sheets or, with sufficient ~ilting, a tear!ng-
pull out combination.

4- 7 SECTION 4 I CONNECTIONS
The AISI S310 Standard uses screw strength equations from the AISI S100 Standard,
which are found in Sections 01.1.1 and 01.2.5 of AISI S31 0 for structural and side-lap
screws, respectively.

Section 4.3.2 Screw Flexibilities

The AISI S310 Standards uses screw flexibility values from earlier editions of the SDI
Diaphragm Design Manual (Luttrell, 2004 ). The flexibility values for both structural and side-lap
screws are found in AISI S310, Section 05.2.2.

Section 4.3.3 Screw Quality Control

The quality of the screw itself is generally not a concern; however, it should be installed using
properly calibrated tools to avoid overdriving. This can strip the threads at side-lap connections
or fracture the s~rew when installing into thicker supporting steel. Screws typically have a
maximum thickness of material that can be connected . In addition, there are multiple drill point
sizes available that accommodate various material thicknesses. Contact the screw
manufacturer for their recommendations on screw length and drill point selection.

Section 4.4 Power Actuated Fasteners


Sheet-to-structural connections can be made using nail-like fasteners, driven either with
pneumatic devices or using powder actuated tools. Such fasteners are made from hardened
steel and usually have heat-treated knurled shafts to enhance anchorage. The shaft may have
a slight taper and a fixed head and can be fitted with washers, concave to the driving direction,
to absorb the final driving energy and thus clamp the sheet in position.

Since there are no predrilled holes, the driving operation displaces material and leaves it locked
under the head or the washers, resulting in a very stiff connection. The driving depth
is controlled by the power selection for the tool used. Fastener strength is controlled by
driving depths. These can be determined by establishing tight contact between the fixed head
and the deck, or by measurements on the washered fastener, after driving , which are
set by the manufacturer.

Section 01 .1.3 of A lSI S31 0 requires that the strength of power-actuated fastener connections
be established by testing.

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 4- 8


Quality Control
These fasteners must be installed following the manufacturer's recommendations. Care must
be exercised in setting the driving force to obtain the proper depth of penetration. All connected
sheets and supporting steel should be in tight contact to ensure the proper depth of penetration
is achieved. A driven fastener should be installed such that the head projects outward, from the
attached part, to limits set by the manufacturer. The axis of the fastener must be substantially
perpendicular to the sheet prior to driving, usually within ± 10°. Edge and end distances for
fasteners are set by the manufacturer.

Section 4.5 Non-Piercing Button Punched Side-Laps


In certain panels with interlocking top side-lap connections (commonly referred to as standing
seam interlock), one edge has an upstanding single element while the opposite side has a
folded-over double element. As panels are placed, the single element is inserted into the
double element producing an upstanding side lap that can be button punched for some
interlocking. The tool used forms a three layer nest of small cones that is left in a slightly loose
state, due to elastic rebound, as the forming force is removed.

Button-punched side laps do stabilize panel edges but, otherwise, may contribute little to
diaphragm strength. They can vary greatly in shape and effectiveness.

The quality of button punching is difficult to maintain. The quality of the attachment depends on
the care and the energy used by the installer and the tool that is used. A conservative approach
for using the tables in Sections 11 and 12 for diaphragms with button punched side-laps is to
consider the button punches as having zero strength and then use the first line in each table.

Diaphragms, required to resist higher shears, may be required to have structural connections
immediately to either side of the upstanding side-lap at supports. Otherwise, the majority of
shear force will be transmitted across panel edges through the button punches only. (See
Figure 16 of Section 9).

Strength for these connections are found in A lSI S31 0 Section 01.2.6 and flexibility is found in
AISI S310 Section 05.2.5

4- 9 SECTION 4 I CONNECTIONS
Advanced proprietary mechanical punching devices do exist; the strength and stiffness values
can be established and appropriate load tables generated. Testing for these fasteners is
required by Section E of A lSI S31 0.

Section 4.6 Other Connections


Connectors other than those specifically listed in AISI S31 0 are permitted to be used when
testing in accordance with Section E of AISI S310. The user is directed to AISI S310 for
additional information.

Section 4.7 Fasteners in Tension and Interaction of Tension and Shear


In addition to resisting loads in shear, the connections in diaphragms are often loaded in
tension. Such loads generally are the result of uplift pressures from wind forces. See the Steel
Deck Institute Roof Deck Design Manual and Section 03 of AISI S310 for a complete
discussion on this subject.

Section 5.1 Concrete Filled Diaphragms
Steel diaphragms may be reinforced with overlayments of insulating concrete,
structural concrete, or by directly attached flat panels used to produce a flat surface.
Such devices present additional paths through which shear forces may traverse the
diaphragm. Consider the diaphragm segment shown in Fig. 5.1, where the shaded areas are
shear zones in the concrete above the steel deck. The shallowest zone above the
corrugation top would present a shear area along the side lap. The concrete which fills the
corrugations prohibits or limits end warping and local corner buckling. Without local warping ,
the shear term of Eq. 2.2-4 would approach unity.

Section 5.2 Insulating Concrete


Lightweight insulating concrete is commonly used over non-composite form deck profiles.
Most commonly, a layer of insulating concrete is placed to a level slightly above corrugation
crests. Rigid insulation boards of expanded cellular polystyrene, having about 2% of the area
containing holes, are then embedded into the concrete and the excess concrete moves into the
openings. A topping coat of 2 inches of similar concrete then is used to finish the diaphragms.
Strength for these diaphragms is found in Section 04.3 of AISI S31 0.

Section 5.3 Structural Concrete


The effect of adding normal or lightweight structural concrete to a steel diaphragm may greatly
increase shear strength given sufficient perimeter attachments to transfer forces across the

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 5- 4


diaphragm perimeters. With greater concrete cover depths, the interior shear strength can
approach that of a reinforced flat slab of thickness de. For composite floor deck diaphragms
having cover depths between 2 inches and 6 inches, measured shear stresses on the order of

3.5-Jf; over the shear area deL have been reported (Porter and Greimann, 1982). Shear

increases with depth and methods of attachment. Strength for these diaphragms is found in
Section 04.2 of AISI S310.

Section 5.4 Perimeter Connections


The perimeter connections at the extreme ends of the panels are spaced as dictated by the ~

term in Eq. 5.1-1. In order to develop the strength of the diaphragm, it is vital to provide
adequate perimeter connections to get the force in and out of the diaphragm. However, since
the concrete fill may add significantly to the strength within the system, it may be necessary to
increase the number or strength of perimeter connections in order to develop the full strength
of the diaphragm field.

The design of perimeter connections is covered in Section 04.4 of AISI S310.

Section 5.5 Stud Connections


Perimeter connections may include shear studs extending into the concrete leading to
enhanced shear strength. Stud ultimate shear strength values may be used to substitute for
part or all of the perimeter connections. The AISC-360 Specification for .Structural Steel
Buildings (AISC, 201 0) assigns design strengths for shear values and reduction coefficients to
account for their being placed through steel deck profiles, and Section 04.4.1 of AISI S31 0
provides additional information. (Refer to Example Problem 16 in Section 10.)

Section 5.6 Stiffness and Deflections


The presence of concrete fill over the corrugated shape of a diaphragm substantially eliminates
panel end warping for loads within the design range. Thus the pD" term of Eq. 3.3-3

approaches zero. Further, the steel panel shear force is proportionately smaller with the added
concrete shear resistance.

The calculation of the stiffness of filled diaphragms is found in Section 05.4 of AISI S31 0.

Section 6.1 Alternate Fasteners
Section E of AISI S31 0 permits the strength and stiffness of a diaphragm to be
determined by tests in accordance with that chapter. The results of small-scale tests to
determine the strength and flexibility of fasteners in accordance with AISI S905 can
be utilized with the diaphragm theory found in A lSI S31 0, or an alternate theory
can be developed. Additionally, it is permitted to perform full-scale diaphragm tests
in accordance with AISI S907.

The SOl Diaphragm Design Manual, 3rd Edition, (Luttrell, 2004) contained fastener
strength and flexibility equations based upon extensive testing and these equations can be
used for diaphragm design, with the approval of the Designer and Authority Having
Jurisdiction. It is permitted to use the safety and resistance factors shown in S310-2013
with these equations, since the commentary of AISI S310, Section 81 says the calibration
is based on the test data and calibration in SOl DDM01 ( 1981 ).

Section 6.2 Arc-Spot Welds (DDM03)


For base steel thickness t, between 0.0285 inch and 0.0635 inch, the ultimate strength has
been found to be:

Pnf = 2.2tFu(d- t), kips (Eq·n. 6.2.1-1)

p = 2.2tF"(d -t)} kN
{ nf I 000
1

Where:
d = average visible diameter (limited to a minimum of 0.5 inches)
= specified minimum steel strength, ksi
= base steel thickness, inches

For typical steel diaphragms using ASTM A653 SS grade 33 steels having Fy = 33 ksi, Fu
=45 ksi, and d =5/8 inches:

Pnf =99t(0.625- t) (Eqn. 6.2.1-2)

Arc-spot weld flexibility is calculated using AISI S310.

6- 3 SECTION 6 I ALTERNATE FASTENERS


Section 6.3 Nestable Side LaQ Welds (0DM03)
The weld strength is calculated as follows:

Pns = 0.75Pnf (Eqn. 6.3.1-1)


Where Pntis defined in Eqn. 6.2 .1-1 .

Weld flexibility is ?alculated using AISI S310.

Section 6.4 Welds With Washers (DDM03)


For such washers, the ultimate strength is:

Pnt = 99t(1.33d 0 + 0.3Fxxt), kips (Eqn.6.4-1)

p
{ nf
= 17.3t(~+ Fxxt)} kN
19.1 584 '
Where:

= hole diameter, inches

= electrode strength, ksi


t = sheet thickness, inches

Using a 16-gage washer with do= 3/81nches and Fu = 45 ksi:

E60XX: Pnt = 99t(0.50 + 18t), kips (Eqn. 6.4-2)


E?OXX: Pnt = 99t(0.50 + 21t), kips (Eqn . 6.4-3)

For washers with elongated or slotted holes one inch long by one-quarter inch wide and
having loads applied parallel to the weld axis:

E60XX: Pnt = 99t(0.50 + 36t), kips (Eqn. 6.4-4)

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 6- 4


It is noted that this slotted weld, at one-quarter inch by one inch, presents a larger weld
area than does the three-eighths inch diameter round weld, requires more weld material
and is stronger.

Weld flexibility is calculated using AISI S310.

Section 6.5 Screw Connections (DDM03)


For No. 12 or No. 14 screws to supporting members greater than 0.0385 inches in
thickness, the ultimate strength is calculated as follows:

Pnt = 1.25Fyt(1 - 0.005Fy). kips (Eqn. 6.5-1)

{ 3Ft(
P - FJ}
1.5 - 1380 '
nf -
y 1 Y kN

Where:

= base steel thickness, inches

= specified minimum steel strength, ksi

For stitch connections between sheets at the sidelaps, the strength of the connection can
be calculated as follows:

Pns =115dt, kips (Eqn. 6.5-2)

{Pns = 0. 793dt}, kN
Where:
t = base steel thickness, inches
d = major diameter of the screw, inches

6- 5 SECTION 6 I ALTERNATE FASTENERS


For the stitch screws studied, the following data were obtained:

Size Diameter (inches) Pns (kips)


#8 0.1635 18.8t
#10 0.1867 21.5t
#12 0.2111 24.3t
#14 0.2477 28.5t

Flexibilities are calculated using AISI S310.

Section 10.1 Introduction

The following series of design examples are arranged to illustrate selected problems
encountered in the use of diaphragms. The more common problems usually are not in the
assessment of either strength or stiffness, but in the structural analysis itself and particularly
in the determination of deflections. For indet~rminate structural systems, it is essential to
know displacements, else the proper assignment of force distribution through the system may
not be possible.

The first five examples introduce simple behavioral concepts including simple methods of
deflection calculations. The remaining examples focus more toward design evaluations and,
necessarily, they are limited to a specific loading condition. The assumed loading conditions
are for illustrative purposes. A specific building design must be based on its own design loads
that come from any direction.

Additional examples can be found in AI Sl 031 0-14, Design Examples for the Design of
Profiled Steel Diaphragm Panels Based on A/Sf S310-13, published by the American Iron and
Steel Institute. This design guide is the supporting document for A lSI S31 0, North American
Standard for the Design of Profiled Steel Diaphragm Panels. The guide provides five design
examples that illustrate the application of design provisions in AISI 8310.

Additional examples can be found in the SDI White Paper, Diaphragm Analysis with Skew
Walls, (SDI, 2014).

The diaphragm resists distortion of the rectangular area, as does the diagonal member in the
truss. The average shears along both the long and short dimensions are:

S = ~ = Ra = 4.5kip

Notes: The perimeter members are integral parts of the system and must be stable in order
to transfer forces through the system. Given the diaphragm stiffness properties, its deflection
under the load can be precisely modeled by a properly arranged truss. (See Example 3.)

by the gage layout. Gages 3, 4, and 5 will indicate any movement of the supports, which must be
removed to arrive at the actual shear deflection. ll 1 will be virtually identical to ll 2 noting that axial
strains in the perimeter members will be small. Find the net shear deflection to be:

longer than it is deep and which theory presumes a G' stiffness with an order of magnitude
greater than what is common in diaphragms . (See Section 3.1) Further note that, even if a

more correct deflection then is design !::.max= 0.326 inches .

If the diaphragm has constant stiffness then G'1 =G'2 =G' and :

If instead, the deflection is calculated using the shear-area method, the deflection o with a
constant G' is the area under the V/G'B diagram between the rigid shear wall and the
location of P and is the change in deflection between those points. The principle works
when G' is constant. However, you cannot always use this simple principle when G'
varies. If applying the principle to varying G', in this case:

From left wall to load

From right wall to load

Result: Note the discrepancies- left vs . right and either vs. Castigliano's theory. Results are
the same when G'1 = G'2, but not when G'1 '# G'2, Depending on the ratio G'1/G'2 this
discrepancy can be significant. When G'1 :f G'2 use an energy method of analysis.

Since the shear diagram is constant over the "x" fields, the curvature is linear, but to
exhaust the problem (since this is not always so), determine the maximum deflection .
Consider that the maximum might happen in the G'2 zone between x = C and 3C. The
solution may require iteration to determine the maximum between 0 and C.

The deflection slope is constant and negative. The curvature is linear and deflection
decreases with "s" over this region so the maximum is at the point of load. Deflection

Results are only the same when G'1 = G'2· Depending on the ratio of G'2 I G'1 this

discrepancy can be significant. The shear-area principle does not work when load is a
symmetric uniform load but the stiffness is unsymmetrical. Instead, use the energy method.

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 10 - 26


Conclusion:
The shear area method says the change in deflection between two points along a

diaphragm span is the area under the ~ diagram between those points. This should
BGx
only be applied where:

1. The diaphragm shear stiffness, G'x· is constant along the span for any load, or

2. The diaphragm stiffness, G'x· is symmetric but not necessarily constant along the

span and the load is also symmetric.

For other cases use an energy method to determine diaphragm deflection. The change in
deflection is the deflection where one point is a relatively rigid shear wall.

Modeling using Computer Software:

It is possible to calculate diaphragm deflections using frame analysis software that has the
ability to calculate shear deflections in addition to flexural deflections. Most, but not all,
available educational or commercial software has this capability.

In order to properly model the diaphragm, a beam is constructed using the proper shear
stiffness, and analyzed under the load case(s) .

Program input should use the following values:


= Infinite (or extremely large value)
E = Infinite (or extremely large value)
G = 11300 ksi (for steel diaphragm)
B = Diaphragm depth (length parallel to direction of loading)
A = Beam element cross sectional area
= (B G') I G

10 - 27 SECTION 10 I EXAMPLES
Assume for this Example the following values

c = 200ft.
8 = 200ft.
L = 600ft.
G'1 = 40 k/in.
G-2 = 20 k/in .
p = 30 kips (Case 1, 2, and 3)
w = 0.10 kips/ft (Case 4)

For both the energy solution using Castigliano's theory and the computer (stiffness) model,
the following deflections are obtained:

Case Deflection (inches)


Case 1 0.67
Case2 1.00
Case 3 0.75
Case4 0.88 ( at midspan)

Figure 6.1 - Roof Diaphragm

10- 29 SECTION 10 I EXAMPLES


A diaphragm has L = 18 feet long WR type panels on three equal spans as in Figure 6.1. The
design thickness is t = 0.0295 inches, and d = 0.625 inch arc-spot welds (visible diameter) are
used in a 30/4 pattern on all supports and at the ends. (See Section 9 for typical fastener
patterns.) Two No. 10 stitch screws are to be used at the side-laps within each span. Find the
design shear load.

From the Section 11 table for 22 gage (0.0295 in.) deck with 5/8 inch arc spot weld support
connectors and #1 0 sidelap screws, the nominal strengths of the deck are:
Snt = 620 plf (fastener limit)
Sni = 3875 plf (panel buckling limit)
Where

(AISI S310 Section 01)

This table investigates Sni and Snc· See Eqs. 2.2-4 and 2.2-5. Sne concerns diaphragm
strength control at lateral force resisting systems (shear walls) and must be designed
separately. See Eq. 2.2-2 for the design of an edge panel and Example 18, which designs
one possible detail.

Assume the diaphragm is subject to wind load, then:


LFRD
The factored design shear based on fastener strength is:
<D=0.70
<DSn = 0.70 (620) =434 plf (Controls)
The factored design shear based on panel buckling is:
=0.80
<D
<DSn =0.80 (3875) = 3100 plf
ASD
The allowable design shear based on fastener strength is :
o = 2.35
Sn/0 =620/2.35 =264 plf (Controls)
The allowable design shear based on panel buckling is:
o = 2.oo
Sn/0 = 3875/2.00 = 1937 plf

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 10 - 30


The edge support angle must deliver the design load to the lateral load resisting member. In
this case the small force (434 plf x 6 feet = 2.60 kips LRFD factored load) or (264 plf x 6
feet= 1.58 kips ASD allowable load) could easily be accommodated by a 3/16 inch x 1 inch
fillet weld and an angle 2 inches x 2 inches x 3/16 inches.

(2) Three span condition with L= 3Lv = 18.0 feet and np = 2 interior purlins
(3) 5/8 inch diameter welds along supports and (2) No. 10 screws per span on all
side-laps
(4) The steel is ASTM A653 SS Grade 33 with Fu = 45 ksi.

For all listed shapes in the load tables in Sections 11 and 12, G' may be found by simple
substitution. The general stiffness, G', is determined using Eq. 3.3-3 where pis presented in
Table 3.3-2. Section 9 lists simplified equations for the calculation of shear stiffness. The
simplification adjusts the general equation to the three span case where L = 3Lv and p = 0.9. For
bare (no fill) decks, the simplified equation is:

G' = K2

Where K 1, K2, K4, .and Dxx are selected from the appropriate Section 9
tables. For this example:

Note that the "downwind" loads: w = 398 plf = 288 + 110 = 186 + 212. The internal
pressure effects lead to no net diaphragm shears; those pressure effects simply move
throughout the diaphragm support structure to the opposite wall. Wall-to-roof
connections must be designed accordingly.

The total diaphragm shear delivered to the end walls is R =wb/2, thus R =79.6 kips.

Notes:
1. From a strength viewpoint, these diaphragms are adequate, but note the strong
influence of the fastener patterns in Zone 2 on the stiffness. This has led to a fairly
large deflection, which may be excessive, and a new design for this zone may be
necessary.
2. Examine wind load effects from other directions. Usually it will be most severe when
loads are received from the long walls and delivered to the short walls.
3. Note the potential economic advantage of selecting a particular fastener pattern and
then using different panel thickness for the various roof zones.

Combination Diaphragm Shear and Uplift


The interaction between shear and tension is addressed in Examples 20 and 21.

Expansion Joints
Consider the building to have an expansion joint at b/2 such that either end is substantially
independent. The "chord" forces, formerly developed in spandrel beams along the b
dimension, must now be developed in the windward and leeward sidewalls; these walls now
act as diaphragms.

Rw and RL vary from zero at the expansion joint to a maximum at the end wall. If the wall
stiffness is consistent along b, the variation is virtually linear. The maximum shear then is
twice the average shear.

S= i RL ) s =398 plf
~ 2 00feet

At any point in a diaphragm, the average shears in the system, parallel to the deck span,
exactly equal those perpendicular to the span. The perimeter beams have axial forces and
are an integral part of the system, eliminating an accordion-like collapse of the deck.

with the maximum diaphragm shear being :

S - R1 81 = 138 plf

- 200feet

With changes along the end wall , the shear diagram also changes, as in Figure 7.5c. At the
one-third point of the end wall, the shear diaphragm is 46 plf.

Addition of Shears
The small element forces, shown near the left corners of Figures 7.5b and 7.5c, have
directions dependent on the shear diagram. As shown here and following the values from the
preceding section, the upper left block would have a maximum shear of 398 + 138 =536 plf
and the lower block could have a value of 398 - 138 =260 plf. However, the wind direction
may reverse leaving either block at a maximum of 536 plf. This approach is used in the
following table.

The addition of shears from different load conditions is direct since the orthogonal values
always are equal. Therefore, it is good practice to consider either deck thickness or fastener
patterns to meet the actual conditions; there is little reason for the roof diaphragm to be
everywhere identical. Consider the present case with the roof subdivided into nine zones as
indicated in Figure 7.5a.

10 - 41 SECTION 10 I EXAMPLES
The deck selection can be managed as per previous examples. However, too many zones
could become troublesome to manage during the construction but, perhaps, three would not be.

Further Discussion of Diaphragm Shears


Considering the windward and leeward forces shown in Figure 7.5a combined as the single
load w and designating the origin to be point 9, the shears parallel to the end wall at any
point x (along the sidewall) is:

The diaphragm shear parallel to the endwall at any point x is:

S E -- wx
L

Considering the other direction, the shear parallel to the side walls is the chord force that is
developed over a unit distance. The "chord forces" at any point x are:

M wx 2
P=-=-
L 2L

The change of P over a unit distance is the diaphragm shear:

Ss =SE; therefore?the diaphragm shears are identical in values on orthogonal faces.

Similar formulations can be developed for other loadings or other diaphragm configurations .

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 10 - 42


Example 8: Expansion Joints
Buildings are subject to non-symmetric load conditions. Thus it is not realistic to leave a
structure, free to move parallel to the joints, as in the latter part of the previous example.
The joint cover could try to span the joint and be damaged. Various solutions might be
considered as in Figure 8.1.

This detail may be applicable to wind-loaded diaphragms but is not applicable to seismically
loaded diaphragms. Evaluation by a competent design professional is needed to determine
if any detail is applicable for a specific application.

A slotted stub apparatus, welded to one beam and slotted on the opposite end, could
transfer shears from one side to the other, shears arising from unbalanced loadings for
example . The stub design and performance will depend on connections, the flange width of
the support beam, and the frequency of top flange bracing. The torque imposed on the
beam must be considered.

The expansion joint perhaps should not extend completely across the roof. Consider a roof
structure such as that in Figure 8.2. The end loads, wE, now have a path to the opposite
side, particularly in the mid-region. Given the tributary area supported by the beam lines,
about one-half the WE forces will not introduce shears on the long walls; they are balanced
by opposing forces at the opposite wall.

Suppose the sidewall joint of Detail A opens with f.lL

This force would be transferred along the joist at the joint, through the joist end into the
beam, and from the beam to the parallel opposite joist. The wall has now been permitted to
relax, but the mid-third of the diaphragm along 4-4 remains effective.

Along line 4-4, just to the right of the expansion joint, the average shear force is R/3. The
average shear is:

S=R/3=B_
L 3L

when the right side joists deliver their accumulated forces to the beam lines, the remaining
diaphragm between beams acts as a link. With Detail A at the third point of the diaphragm,
the line 4-4 unit shear is:

the same as at th'e building ends.

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 10 - 48


As indicated in Figure 9-3, the maximum diaphragm shear for the roof deck is 84 plf.
However, the Line 3 accumulates shears for a total thrust of:
T = (S1 + Ss) 48ft T =8.06 kips
This thrust is reversible depending on the direction of the loading. The total shear delivered
to the short wall is:
Rb =T + S6 (24 ft) Rb =10.125 kips
This is the same value calculated previously. The maximum diaphragm shear in the short
wall is:

S - Rb Swall = 422 plf


wall - 24ft

A review of Figure 9-2 will lead to the obvious need for little or no slip being allowed at the
beam anchorage. Otherwise, potentially crippling local stresses will be delivered to the
diaphragm. The joists at the wall must be anchored to deliver the 84 plf diaphragm shear.

Figure 9.4- Shears

Wall Movements
Shear walls tend toward in-plane rotation due to eccentricity between the base level and
the top-of-wall shears. In heavy walls, gravity forces usually will prohibit any uplift at the
base, but such tendencies must be checked.

10 - 49 SECTION 10 J EXAMPLES
The limits that are placed on wall deflections, normal to the wall, reflect architect1,1ral
considerations relative to appearance. Further, the limits must be such that the walls do not
experience undue strains or curvature. For example, local deflections between girt lines in
metal wall assemblies often are limited to values of 1/120 to 1/180 times the girt spacing.

Suppose the roof diaphragm in this example has the rather low stiffness of G' = 12 kips/inch
and the wall height h = 30 feet.

Example 10: Mixed Length Panels

Given:
Adjacent diaphragm zones may differ in stiffness because of different panel lengths. Figure 10-1
shows a case where diaphragm panels change direction. Two possible sections ·are shown.

Case 1. The C-shaped channel is used to permit the roof to have a common top
elevation. Local warping may occur in the diaphragm over the channel and
this can be minimized by frequent connection, perhaps in every valley to
resist the design shear. This is shown in Figure 10-2.

Case 2. The top elevation is uniform. The flat plate is used to retard warping or simply
to close off the gap. This is shown in Figure 10-3.

The diaphragm transfers loads away from the semi-rigid frame, and the transfer can be

Analysis by the Stiffness Method


This frame and diaphragm system can be quickly analyzed by the stiffness method. From
the principles laid out previously (in particular in Example 2), the stiffness of one diaphragm
is the force required to induce a unit displacement. In Figure 11-2 the only degree of
freedom is at the semi-rigid frame. The stiffness of the diaphragm is then:
2bG'

The load carried by the semi-rigid frame is then simply:

Which, of course, is identical to the previous answer.

Find the total lateral forces transferred to each frame.

Solution
The shear diagram is drawn in 2 separate parts, for k- and w-forces, to make area
calculations easier. Using shear diagram areas for deflection, as was done in Example 5:

~1 = - -(2wa + wa { ~)-
1
(F + F2 )a

(2160 + 76)1:11 + 381:12 =314 (a)

761:11 + (2160 + 76) 1:12 =419 (b)

Solving (a) and (b) leads to ~ 1 =0.137 inches and ~ 2 =0.183 inches, and then to F1 = k ~ 1
=0.276 kips and F2 =0.366 kips.

It is observed that even with this moderately flexible diaphragm, little of the frame tributary
load of w(a) = 5.51 kips is transferred to the foundation through the frames. Most of
the load goes through the diaphragm area, to the end walls, and then to the
foundation. Frame member sizes then may be smaller than when the design was based
on tributary area loads.

Analysis by the Stiffness Method

The stiffness of a diaphragm segment is simply: kd = G' ~ kd =56 .8 kips/inch


a
Thus the force required to induce the unit displacement at each semi-rigid frame is 2kd. + k

and the restraining force at the ends of each displaced diaphragm segment is -kd. It is

10 - 57 SECTION 10 I EXAMPLES
noted that the chords of the diaphragm provide no continuity between the frames, so there
is no restraining .force related to the semi-rigid frames. The numbering system for the
displacements is noted in Figure 12.

s = -56.842 115.684 -56.842

The force matrix is the tributary area loads to each frame :

- 5.51]
P = -5.51 kips
[
-5.51

The deflections are then calculated by inverting the stiffness matrix and multiplying it by the
force matrix:

0.137]
~= 0.183 inches
[
0.137
These deflections, of course, are the same as those obtained by the previous solution.

Analysis by the Truss Analogy


To model the diaphragm as a horizontal truss, the shear diaphragm panel is replaced by a
web as follows (using the principles of Example 3):

Ld = ~a2 +b2 Ld =81.4 feet


L3 G' 2
A = -d- Ad = 2.407 inches
d abE

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 10 - 58


Using basic principles from any text modeling stiffness of truss members, the force required
to move a node a unit displacement is:

EAd ( .
Sw =-L- Slna
)2
d

The restraining force is simply -Sw applied to opposing ends of the panel being displaced .
The stiffness matrix of the truss elements is:

and the stiffness matrix of the frame and diaphragm system is:

115.684 - 56.842 0 J
S = -56.842 115.684 - 56.842 kips/inch
[
0 - 56.842 115.684

This matrix is identical to the previously solved example. The problem could, of course, be
solved using a standard structural analysis problem.

Example 13: Split Level Diaphragms

Given:
The building in Figure 13.1 has the same roof plan as in Figure 9.1, but the roofs are at
different levels. The east and west walls, Lines 1 and 6 are shear rigid, but the structural steel

Solution:

Shear Summary
Refer to Figure 13.3.

s = v2 = 394 plf
48feet

s = v1 = 482 plf
72feet
The lower roof receives loads from the upper level and the transfer is through the cross wall
of Figure 13.2. That wall has:

Upper portion: S = 8 .4 8kips = 118 plf


72feet

Lower portion: S = (8.48 -1.63 )<ips = 285 plf


24feet

Special Details
The eave forces, T1, T2, and C1, must be transferred to the foundation through their
sidewall diaphragms as in Example 7. The force C2 may be resisted either in its own wall
diaphragm or distributed into the higher parallel wall by a distribution beam. This transfer
problem is analogous to the thrust delivery of Example 9 and its illuslralion in Figure 9.4
The roof to wall shear transfers at Line 3 may be made following the scheme presented in
Figure 13.4. Positive connections are made through the angles or similar dev.ices to transfer
only 118 plf between roof levels and could be rather small.

The Line 3 cross wall , being both flexible and near the mid-length of the building, does not
receive shear on the same scale as does the rigid short wall in Figure 9. This is because the
wall does have flexibility to move somewhat away from the load. The 24-foot diaphragm
length, being short, does have a moderately high average shear and it might be required
that this diaphragm segment be reinforced. This could be accomplished by supplemental
diagonal bracing designed following Example 3.

Example 14: Floor Diaphragms

Given:
Multistory structures may have floor layouts where a central core is used as the principal element
for resisting lateral forces. A core, such as that indicated for the building of Figure 14.1 where
certain columns have been omitted for clarity, may attract forces over a rather short length, b,
near the center of the structure. For unsymmetrical load cases, torsion will be present and it may
be necessary to add secondary bracing in the walls such as that indicated in the figure.

Figure 14.1

Consider one floor as in Figure 14.2, where the core is to resist all lateral loads, w.
Examine the shear distribution in the core vicinity.

Solution:
(1) To the left of Line 3 (or the right of Line 4 ), the average diaphragm shear force is
2wa and the average diaphragm shear across the floor width is:

S= 2wa (a)

problem can be eliminated . For example, the Beam YZ on Line 3 attracts shears
from the left for a total axial force of:

C = b 2wa = 2wa (c)

It may also receive , depending on the details between Lines 3 and 4, about half the
load between those lines. Then the beam end anchorage required would be about:

The anch<?rage is similar to that in Example 9 in which very little movement at the

Figure 15e - Average Shears

The forces in the vicinity of the opening may be determined from Figure 15e, which shows
the average shears to either side of the frame lines containing AC and 80. From the shear
diagram and noting the shear length available:

AC left: S = 24 kips/120 feet = 0.200 kips/foot


AC right: S = 24 kips/( 120 feet - 40 feet) = 0.300 kips/foot
80 left: S = 12 kips/(120 feet- 40 feet)= 0.150 kips/foot
80 right: S = 12 kips/120 feet = 0.100 kips/foot

Figure 15f- Adjacent Diaphragm Perimeter Forces

The zone above AB or below CD must be in equilibrium through the axial forces SH in
members AB and CD as in Figure 15f. These SH forces must be transferred into adjacent
diaphragms over distances m, as in Figure 15g, sufficiently great to avoid corner crippling. In
lieu of a more detailed analysis, presume that half of the w =0.200 kips/foot line load is acting
on the upper zone and half on the lower zone as with downwind suction. Then from Figure 15f,
equilibrium can be established by summation of moments about the upper left corner:

SH = -1 (0.1 OOkips I foot x 60feet x 30feet + 6kips x 60feet) = 13.5 kips (e)
40 . .

This agrees with VL 2 determined at Figure 15c, which uses the same assumptions. Half of

this force can be transferred into adjacent diaphragms through extensions, such as BE, and
over the length of m in Figure 15g. Assume the load is a wind load.

Figure 15g - Frame at Opening

Suppose the diaphragm design thickness is t = 0.0295 inches, m = 15 feet, and that #12
screws are used for connections. From Section 9:

#12 Screw P1 = 747 pounds

STEEL DECK INSTITUTE 10 - 74


Noting an ASD Factor of Safety of 0 = 2.35 for mechanical connectors from Section 2.4, the
transfer of SH/2 into the diaphragms adjacent would require n fasteners along m.

ASD

n = SH n = [13500 lb][ 2.35 J= 21 screws (f)


2 Pt 2 7741b/screw

These screws are in addition to the screws required to resist a diaphragm shear of
0.25 kips/foot at the shear wall or 0.3 kips/ft above A. With m = 15 feet, the SH force is
delivered as shear per unit length in the diaphragm along both sides of the extension:

1 13 5 1
S = SH -- =[ · k] = 0.225 ki s/foot (g)
2 2m 2 2(15ft) P

It is clear that large openings should be arranged such that their corners lie on major beam lines
thus allowing the transfer length, m, to be great and the concentrated shear forces to be small.

With m fixed at 15 feet in the above example, the delivered shear into the panels, 0.225 kips/foot,
will add vectorially to the shear per unit length in the diaphragm panels 'near the opening.
This shear per unit length increases the diaphragm shears due to external loads on one
side of the support of length m and reduces the shear on the opposite side.

Since the diaphragm above AB must be designed for a 0.300 kips/foot un-factored shear,
determine the length of m required to create a combined component of similar magnitude - 0.438
kips/foot is 46% greater. The physical limit is m =30 feet on the left side. From (g) above, try m =
30 feet:

0.225 kips/foot

Combined S = 0.113 + 0.225 = 0.338 kips/foot or 13% greater.

Should the physical restriction of 30 feet not control, m = 30 to 40 feet is practical to balance the
required diaphragm design relative to that above AB, 0.300 kips/foot.

The 21 fasteners from Equation (f), along the BE-type extensions, must be included above those
required for the basic design of the AB or CD zones.

Screws also are required in the vertical members above A and B and below C and D to transfer
4 kips and 2 kips respectively, as shown in Figure 15c. These forces are 1/6 the shear at those
lines because 1/3 is in the diaphragm's panels. Using the method of equation (f) and assuming
that a deck panel's bottom flat lands on the vertical member, equation (f) requires 12 screws and
6 screws. Screws are also required at the edge conditions in members AC and BD to transfer 8
kips and 4 kips respectively. Using the method of equation (f) requires 24 screws and 12 screws.
Other edge conditions are shown in Example 18.

Example 16: Concrete Filled Floor Diaphragm
A floor system is fabricated using normal weight concrete over a 2-inch deep steel section as in
Figure 16a. The steel panel lengths are at least 3 Lv long, where Lv is the cross support beam
spacing, which is 9 foot. Evaluate the composite system for strength and stiffness considering
possible use of % inch shear studs on the diaphragm perimeter. The analysis has led to a
maximum un-factored required shear of 0.750 kips/foot.

Figure 16b - Typical Deck Layout

Along member AC of Figure 16b with Lv = 9 feet = 108 inches, 9 intermediate welds within
Lv would allow e = 10.80 inches to meet the required spacing. However, along member AB,
the spacing was fixed at an average of 12 inches. The inclusion of at least one extra weld,
within Figure 16a, would be required at panel ends on the diaphragm perimeter. With the
fastener spacing across panel ends at 12 inches, the required shear would be:

ASD
(10.80 I 12) (0.75) = 0.675 kips/foot

10- 79 SECTION 10 I EXAMPLES


The addition of one extra weld per panel would lead to an average end spacing of 36
inches/4 welds = 9 inches, noting that the former average count was three welds per panel
or a 12 inch spacing.

Shear studs may be used on the perimeter for force transfer with the values established
following Section 15 and commentary of the AISC Manual of Steel Construction, Fourteenth
Edition. Given the general dimension of Figure 16a, coefficients are developed for shears
perpendicular and parallel to the deck:
Nr = 1 stu~ per valley, in weak position
Wr =6 inch rib opening
hr = 2 inch rib height
Hs =3.5 inch stud height
On= 17,200 pounds

Suppose it is desired to develop the maximum shear strength of 5.44 kips/foot through
perimeter studs . ·Then using the value On in lieu of the Ot value earlier, the maximum stud
spacing at the edge would be
12 17 2
e= ( · ) = 37.9 inches
5.44

It is clear that the typical stud spacing for a composite steel beam is sufficient for the
diaphragm transfer.

It is expected that this diaphragm is a very rigid diaphragm because the concrete both
carries much of the shear and retards end warping in the steel panels.

K2 = 1056. kips/inch

Case 2: Edge over deck with end-lap at filler strip


The strength of the screw at the end-lap is controlled by the screw into the deck so
that shear plane has Pnts = 558 lbs. However, Sni and Snc are controlled by the
strength in one ply. Those forces are additive at the end-lap in Sni· The maximum
that can be developed in each sheet at the end-lap is 1'2 Pnrs = 279 lbs. It is
permitted to use 558 in Snc· The screws between the end-laps have Pnrs = 558 lbs.

At Snc. the x component at a two-ply end-lap cancels in the

can be developed at the filler to screw bearing in each ply. The

Note A.1-1
1. These shear and tensile strengths in Table A.1-1 have been taken from the product
literature for a specific product and may not be appropriate for other screw types or
products from other screw manufacturers. Other screw types are acceptable provided
the shear and tensile strengths are available from the manufacturer or from test.
2. The AISI Specification allows the use of test values in lieu of the design expressions
in E4.3 and E4.4.

AISI Sections E4.3.2 and E4.4.3 can be difficult to apply in practice and for the purpose of
this manual the following conservative interpretation applies:

For E4.3.2, the shear strength of the screw constitutes an additional limit on Pns
such that Pns ~(Ultimate Shear Strength of the Screw) I (1.250) with 0 =3.0.

For E4.4.3, the tensile strength of the screw constitutes an additional limit on Pnot
Such that Pnot ~(Ultimate Tensile Strength of the Screw) I (1.250) with 0 = 3.0.

Note: AISI S31 0. Section D4.4 requires perimeter fasteners to develop the full nominal
diaphragm shear. If the shear is carried by 314" diameter shear studs already being used to
provide for composite action of the supporting beam and referring to Table 9-6, for a single
stud provided in the weak position with the deck perpendicular to the stud, then:

Pn = 17200 pounds per stud.

It can be seen be.low that the studs already provided for composite beam action can be
sufficient to transfer the diaphragm shear into the framing when spaced at 12 in. on center

LOAD TABLES

THE LOAD TABLES ARE SHOWING NOMINAL STRENGTH VALUES. THE VALUES MUST NOT BE
USED WITHOUT APPLYING THE PROPER SAFETY OR RESISTANCE FACTOR.

LRFD: The values of the load tables must be multiplied by a resistance


factor when comparing to forces evaluated using Load and
Resistance Factor Design.

ASD: The values of the load tables must be divided by a safety


factor when comparing to forces evaluated using Allowable
Strength Design.

The following load tables are for typical panel configurations and connector types. Different
panel widths and fastening patterns are possible. Specific design applications may dictate an
arrangement, not listed, that would require the designer to make direct use of the strength and
stiffness formulas in Sections 1 through 5. Assistance is available from SDI member companies.

The tables are arranged showing the fastener types and resistance factor at the top along with the
fastener patterns as defined in Section 9. For each steel base metal design thickness given, factored
nominal shear strengths are listed under the specific span lengths. The column "S.ide-lap Conn/Span"
shows the number of connectors between structural supports at the sheet edge. For example, the row
labeled "S"would represent six even spaces or stitch fasteners at 12-inch centers within a 6-foot deck span.

Nominal diaphragm shears due to panel buckling are tabulated at the bottom of the pages
to check whether the panel buckling governs over connector strength for diaphragm design.

Steel yield and tensile strength, and weld electrode strength (where appropriate), are shown in each table.

The D-values are the warping constants for the particular connector pattern and panel profile.
They may be substituted directly into the G' stiffness equation in Section 9. D-values, K2- K3-
and K4 -values are listed in Section 9. K1-values are found with the appropriate load table.

The concrete thickness above the deck is 2-1 /2" in all applicable tables. The minimum permitted
by the SDI Standards is 1-1 /2" for non-composite deck and 2" for composite deck; however,
2-1/2" is commonly the minimum thickness above the deck permitted by many fire-rated floor
assemblies. Some assemblies require a greater thickness. When more than 2-1/2" of concrete
is above the top of the deck, the nominal strength reported in the tables is conservative.

LOAD TABLES

THE LOAD TABLES ARE SHOWING NOMINAL STRENGTH VALUES. THE VALUES MUST NOT BE
USED WITHOUT APPLYING THE PROPER SAFETY OR RESISTANCE FACTOR.

LRFD: The values of the load tables must be multiplied by a resistance


factor when comparing to forces evaluated using Load and
Resistance Factor Design.

ASD: The values of the load tables must be divided by a safety


factor when comparing to forces evaluated using Allowable
Strength Design.

The following load tables are for typical panel configurations and connector types. Different
panel widths and fastening patterns are possible. Specific design applications may dictate an
arrangement, not listed, that would require the designer to make direct use of the strength and
stiffness formulas in Sections 1 through 5. Assistance is available from SDI member companies.

The tables are arranged showing the fastener types and resistance factor at the top along with the
fastener patterns as defined in Section 9. For each steel base metal design thickness given, factored
nominal shear strengths are listed under the specific span lengths. The column "S_ide-lap Conn/Span"
shows the number of connectors between structural supports at the sheet edge. For example, the row
labeled"S"would represent six even spaces or stitch fasteners at 12-inch centers within a 6-foot deck span.

Nominal diaphragm shears due to panel buckling are tabulated at the bottom of the pages
to check whether the panel buckling governs over connector strength for diaphragm design.

Steel yield and tensile strength, and weld electrode strength (where appropriate), are shown in each table.

The D-values are the warping constants for the particular connector pattern and panel profile.
They may be substituted directly into the G' stiffness equation in Section 9. D-values, K2- K3-
and K4 -values are listed in Section 9. K,-values are found with the appropriate load table.

The concrete thickness above the deck is 2-1 /2" in all applicable tables. The minimum permitted
by the SDI Standards is 1-1 /2" for non-composite deck and 2" for composite deck; however ,2-
1/2" is commonly the minimum thickness above the deck permitted by many fire-rated floor
assemblies. Some assemblies require a greater thickness. When more than 2-1 /2" of concrete
is above the top of the deck, the nominal strength reported in the tables is conservative.
