In accordance with ASCE 7, a Drag Strut is a structural element (could be a truss) installed parallel to an applied load that collects and transfers diaphragm shear forces to the vertical-force-resisting element or distributes forces within the diaphragm or shear wall.
Struts and Ties. All structures have forces acting on them. The part of the structure that has a tensile force acting on it is called a TIE and the part that has a compressive force acting on it is called a STRUT. The beam is held in position by a steel rod. The weight of the beam is stretching the rod (tensile force).
