E <br />Plan Check No. 1328 <br />Byron Backstrom <br />August 24, 1983 <br />Page Ten <br />d. The distribution analysis should include calculations as to how the <br />rigidities of the walls with openings were determined. <br />e. A diagrahm would be helpful to identify all the walls which were con- <br />sidered part of the lateral force resisting system in both directions. <br />17. The combined footing analysis of all shear wall footings should be made based <br />on dead load only for uplift and dead load plus live load for maximum bearing: <br />a. Calculation Sheet F-8 shows a net uplift (6.95 K/sq.ft. - 4.53 1:/sq.ft.= <br />2.42 K/sq.ft.) This is not an acceptable solution. Further,the allowable <br />soil bearing value is exceeded. <br />b. Calculation sheet F-9 shows an uplift value equal to 6.17 ,./:;q•ft. which <br />exceed the axial bearing value of 4.3 K/sq.ft. There appears to be a net <br />uplift on this footing systen. <br />c. The combined footing system shown on Sheet F-12 of the calculations should <br />be analyzed based on the actual center of gravity of the gravity loads and <br />a more precise section moduli. The approximate system may not be conser- <br />vative. In addition, the easterly participating footings are rather re- <br />mote from the shear walls which imposes the seismic overturning moments <br />Therefore, additional reinforcement in the footing may be necessary to de- <br />velop the calculated bearing pressures. <br />d. Calculation Sheet F-14 shows a soil bearing of 13.1 K/sq.ft. which is <br />greater than the allowable soil -bearing equal to 10.64 K/sq.ft. if 66.7' <br />length is used, additional bottom steel may be required as well as top <br />steel for uplift to develop columns B-6 and B-9 and the four columns <br />along grid line B + 7.0. The wall boundary steel should be developed into <br />the foundation to secure the balancing dead load from the columns. <br />e. For the system shown on calculation Sheet F-16, comments similar to Item <br />c and d above apply. <br />18. Where a column is used as part of the shear wall flange steel, the lap of the <br />steel should be in accordance with your Schedule 16/S1.2, not 30 diameter lap as <br />indicated on 1/15.2. <br />19. Columns which support the shear wall should be constructed as required for <br />ductile concrete columns for its entire height. Section 2626(4)E.
