| Introduction The term Diagrid is a portmanteau of ‘diagonal grid’ and is a technique typically used for constructing large steel buildings by creating external triangular structures with horizontal support rings. The diagonal members intersect each other and the horizontal rings at a single node. The members combine to create an element similar to a moment frame. In a Diagrid structure‚ gravity and lateral loads are resisted by all of the members‚ creating efficiency and large amounts of structural
