A new diaphragm (plywood) should be installed at all attic levels. Install cross wall plywood shear walls. Attic corridor walls should be extended to the roof as bearing/shear walls. 2. New ties from all floors to exterior walls will be required. Clip angles and embedded/grouted anchors to the clay tile walls at approximately 4' o.c. will be required. 3. Dorm room divided walls (transverse walls) need to become plywood shear walls. Install 1/2” cdx sheathing to one side and replace finishes. Provide hold-downs at each end of each wall. 4. Add new single layer of 3/4" plywood to all floors for new diaphragm. May be installed below after plaster ceiling is removed. 5. Provide continuous connection of new plywood diaphragms to new dorm Ak shear walls with continuous light gage angle and screws. (Size and spacing to Ak be determined.) 6. Due to accumulation of shear loads to below 2"d floor, provide new masonry shear walls in transverse direction at or near existing wall locations. Provide new plywood diaphragm between new shear walls (2"d floor joist/1" floor Ak ceiling). Provide hold-down collector beams below 2"d floor to new masonry shear walls as needed.

The college plans to undertake ai; alteration and renovation project in the near future to provide modern improvements to this two-dorm complex. This report is a preliminary summary of the structural requirements set forth in the 6`h Edition of 780CMR Chapter 34, "Repair, Alteration, Addition and Change of Use of Existing Buildings". It is meant to serve as a planning guide for the college and the design/construction consultants. The physical and cost implications of the required structural work, as outlined in this report, should be considered during the planning and early design phase of the renovation project. GENERAL STRUCTURAL DESCRIPTION ' ► Ames and Dodge of Boston, MA designed the two-dorm complex. Design drawings, including foundation and superstructure plans, are available and dated May 17, 1929. Each dorm wing is a 3 story structure some 43 ft. x 173 ft., with an ell and a kitchen wing which is 1 '12 stories measuring 36 ft. x 115 ft. Generally, each building structure is in good condition and the as-built construction appears to conform to the design structural drawings. See Appendix A for basic existing building plans. Each building is a bearing wall structure with the exterior walls composed of bonded brick and structural clay tile (SCT). The interior walls, including corridor- bearing walls, are stud framing with plaster finishes. The floors are 2x repetitive timber joist framing with tongue and groove decking and finish plaster ceilings. Some small areas over mechanical spaces have concrete slab framing. The foundations are poured, cast-in-place concrete with conventional spread footings. Each dorm has an attic with joist framing identical to the 3`d floor framing below. The roof is pitched with timber rafters, wood tongue and groove decking and slate shingles. The buildings are laterally braced by the large number of dorm room divider walls in the transverse direction (N/S) and by the long exterior brick/STC walls in the longitudinal direction (E/W). The first floor level has fewer dividing walls, as the spaces are more open to accommodate larger living rooms, dining rooms, parlors and study areas. There is a full basement throughout with steel carrying beams below the corridor walls supported on steel columns. Comstock and Wilder Dormitories Page 1 of 7 Smith College, Northampton, MA.
