This Report contains a study of the lateral system in the Edward L Kelly Leadership Center.

Within the report, the following items are presented:

• Description of the lateral system used in the existing system
• Combination of loads which control the design of your
  lateral resisting system.
• Computed lateral loads distributed to the lateral resisting elements
• Confirmation that a logical load path for distribution of the calculated loads exists in the real structure
• Checks of strength, drift, story drift, overturning and impact on foundations
• Spot checking of critical members.
• Building drift check
• Torsion issues

In addition, a three-dimensional model created in RAM Structural System is presented.
