Morning,
Wondering what anyone uses to generate brace wall calculations for building department submittal.
We are designing with brace wall lines in mind but will have to submit calcs for permitting. Just looked
at the APA Wall Bracing Calculator and wondering if this would not be better suited for a licensed PE
to enter info and provide calcs for permitting.
May suggest to Softplan that if possible wall bracing could be considered throughout the design process,
such as Softlist, Res Check etc and allow for a printable report and highlighted corresponding walls upon
final design.
Thoughts?
