Does anyone have AIA HSW CE recommendations that get into real load-path analysis and diaphragm/collector design with ASCE 7 load combinations shown numerically? Too many 1-hour sessions skip shear-wall chord forces and slab-to-wall anchorage, which makes it harder for architects to catch unsafe layouts on 5-over-2 podiums; I’d value providers or syllabi that frame these as explicit safety checks.
Same pain here — . > and slab-to-wall anchorage, which makes it harder for architects to catch unsafe layouts on 5-over-2 Totally; the only AIA HSW sessions I’ve seen that show numbers are from WoodWorks and Simpson Strong‑Tie… WoodWorks’ 2‑hour podium/diaphragm workshop walks through ASCE 7 load combos, collector forces, chord tension, and anchorage step‑by‑step (check https://www.woodworks.org/education-events/), and Simpson’s diaphragm‑to‑wall anchorage HSW has full worked examples. Small caveat: titles vary by region, so filter for “diaphragm/collector” and ask the presenter to include shear‑wall chord and slab‑to‑wall checks.
