1 steel deck diaphragm capacity
 

1" steel deck diaphragm capacity
does anyone know where to find the diaphragm capacity of 1" steel deck.
i'm not sure whether sdi has ever done any testing on 1" deck before.
generally, 1" deck is a form deck, and not generally intended to be used to resist anything other than temporary vertical loads. if the supplier or icbo do not have the info, it probably does not exist.

if its not in the sdi diaphragm design manual, then it probably does not exist.
