Skylights and diaphragm forces<\/h1>\n
When thin-plate materials of steel are used for diaphragm action, there is, according to DS446:2000, some geometrical requirements for skylights which must be complied with in order to account for the diaphragm action in the construction. According to EC 3, these rules can be eased since the requirements are stated as: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Openings to 15% of the relevant area are acceptable if justified by detailed calculations.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
In SkanDek\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s experience there are no problems with diaphragm action according to the old rules in DS446, and if these are complied with it, is not necessary to further demonstrate the carrying capabilities of the diaphragm. However, if these rules are not complied with, a more detailed and complex calculation is necessary to demonstrate diaphragm action in the SkanDek panels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Basic requirements for skylights, their placement and geometrical size according to DS446:2000:<\/b><\/p>\n The building geometry in question is shown in the figure below, where the rim zone is marked with a dotted line. The skylights shown are 2.75 x 1.2, which is in compliance with the geometrical requirements.<\/p>\n In this case the building\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s outer walls function as stabilizing walls.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1617″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” css_animation=”top-to-bottom” link=”\/wp-content\/pdf\/Skivevirkning_-eksempel.pdf”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Links and downloads<\/b><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”1618″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”top-to-bottom”][vc_column_text css_animation=”left-to-right” css=”.vc_custom_1450081808452{margin-top: -20px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Click on the picture and get all skylights details as pdf[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1447163416332{border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;border-left-color: #777777 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #777777 !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #777777 !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #777777 !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;}”][vc_text_separator title=”Optimal placement of skylights”][vc_column_text] Skylights and diaphragm forces When thin-plate materials of steel are used for diaphragm action, there is, according to DS446:2000, some geometrical requirements for skylights … Read moreOptimal placement of skylights<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":37,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1497"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1497"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1497\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2033,"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1497\/revisions\/2033"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/37"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skandek.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
