Determine shear in vertical elements due to self-weight inertial effects
Add in the shear forces due to self-weight of vertical elements tributary to the mezzanines
Transverse:
Typical exterior wall (A1-A2 & I1-I2)
Shear = Cs x wall weight trib to mezz. = (0.12)(23.4kips) = 2.81 kips
This shear is now added to the diaphragm shear transferred to the wall by the mezzanine;
Shear in exterior wall tributary to mezzanine = (2.81k + 4.66k) = 7.47 kips (33.2 KN)
Interior mezzanine wall (B1-B2 & H1-H2)
Shear = (0.12)(11.4kips) = 1.37 kips
Shear in interior walls tributary to mezzanine = (1.37k + 3.24k) = 4.61 kips (20.5 KN)
Longitudinal:
Weight of metal panel walls tributary to each braced bay = 0.8 k
Shear = (0.12)(0.8 kips) = 0.096 kips
Shear force to each braced bay from mezz trib loads = (5.94 k + 0.096k ) = 6.04 kips (26.9KN)
1 foot = 0.305 m
1 kip = 4.448 KN
1 kipft = 1.356 KNm
