摘要： Aspects of the present invention are directed at determining whether a structure's braced wall layout complies with building code bracing requirements. In accordance with one embodiment, a method is provided that obtains input describing the geometry of the braced wall line. Then, the applicable building codes that define the wall bracing requirements for the structure are identified. Each bracing member in the braced wall line is selected and processed so that the method may compile data that identifies the location of each bracing member and quantifies the bracing provided in the aggregate. Then, a determination may be made regarding whether the aggregate amount and location of bracing that is provided is a sufficient to satisfy the applicable building codes.
