LDG: Lateral Design Graph - tutorial
LDG is an Excel program to design and visualize
design for lateral wind and seismic forces
LDG requires some knowledge of lateral force design
LDG requires a PC with MS Excel macros Enabled

LDG computes floor area A = (Lx Ly) assuming rectangular plans.
to get correct seismic values, prorate dead load to represent the actual floor area.
For example, if the floor area of a plan is 30% smaller, reduce the dead load 30%

Enter design factors prior to running LDG
Seismic data brown
Wind data green
Velocity Pressure Coefficient Kz = Exposure factor
Copy columns TU into AB as default if needed

Press Ctrl-Shift-R to start LDG (Excel macro)
Select input type: 0, 1, 2, or 3
0 = as is, run current structure displayed
or as modified
1 = uniform: floors, story height, and mass
2 = tapered: changing from base to top
3 = custom: unique floors or stacks of floors
Then input (for 1, 2, 3 only):
 Number of levels
 Level length (ft)
 Level width (ft)
 Story height (ft)
 Mass (Dead Load in psf = pounds / ft2)
