NHERI Tallwood and its non-structural wall designs
from DesignSafe Radio · host DesignSafe Radio
In this episode, earthquake engineer and #NHERITallwood co-PI Keri Ryan gets specific about #NHERITallwood nonstructural components: non-loadbearing walls — elements extremely prone to earthquake drift and damage. Ryan shows us the cold-formed-steel exterior-wall subassemblies and some of the innovative building components that can prevent non-structural deformations due to ground shaking.CEMCO @CEMCO_steelConstruction Specialities Group @csinconlineSimpson StrongTie @strongtieNeed to know more?
