Timber Porch Lateral Bracing Analysis
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
I'm seeking assistance with structural analysis of a wood porch. Specifically, I would like to learn by seeing the steps to calculate lateral bracing for a simple timber (200mm square for all) porch on my house according to the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC). No stamps or drawings need, just a clear explanation of the calculation of lateral loads and moment resistance using a knife plate from Rothoblaas.
