The structural design of buildings using diaphragms is a straightforward process if engineers consider the overall concept of structural diaphragm behavior. With ordinary good construction practice, ...

The work resulted in a better understanding of diaphragm-structure interaction. That in turn led to new design approaches and new 3D modeling tools, say the researchers.
