Lateral Bracing Provided Through Diaphragm

The document provides calculations to determine the required stiffness for lateral bracing of a beam. It includes the applied and unbraced moment strengths of the beam, the tributary width and beam depth. The required stiffness is calculated to be 9.9 based on these values. The provided stiffness of 33.11 is then shown to be adequate, exceeding the required value.
