True or false D. Columns are those members that are primarily subjected to axial compression forces only. Columns usually are thought of as being vertical members, but they may also be inclined. D. Diaphragms are structural components that are flat plates. Diaphragms generally have very high in-plane stiffness. They are commonly used for floors and shear resisting walls. Diaphragms usually span between beams or columns. They may be stiffened with ribs to better resist out-of-plane forces. E. Every load applied to the building will travel through the structural system until it is transferred to the supporting soil.
