Basic Structural Checklist For Building Type S2: Steel Braced Frames/Stiff Diaphragms

Floor and roof framing consists of cast-in-place concrete slabs or metal deck with concrete fill supported on steel beams, open web joists or steel trusses. Lateral forces are resisted by tension and compression forces in diagonal steel members. When diagonal brace connections are concentric to beam-column joints, all member stresses are primarily axial. When diagonal brace connections are eccentric to the joints, members are subjected to bending and axial stresses. Diaphragms consist of concrete or metal deck with concrete fill and are stiff relative to the frames. When the exterior of the structure is concealed, walls consist of metal panel curtain walls, glazing, brick masonry, or precast concrete panels. When the interior of the structure is finished, frames are concealed by ceilings, partition walls and architectural furring. Foundations consist of concrete spread footings or deep pile foundations. The Basic Structural Checklist For Building Type S2: Steel Braced Frames/Stiff Diaphragms mobile app allows you to replace your paper structural checklist with a mobile device. The mobile form includes fields to document items such as date of inspection, structure/ building location, contractor details, records inspection note, and corrective actions and capture's contractor and inspector's signatures. Once the mobile app is filled out a secure PDF is generated. The PDF is easy to share, and a copy is stored in your account for your concrete records. You can also use the App Builder to personalize and customize this mobile form.
