默认 leaning residential garage

leaning residential garage
two car garage leaning at the opening end - 20 foot wide, with 1 foot turn at one side and 3 feet at the other. roof is supported to header over the door (this is not the shear wall) - nice high center of gravity, eh?
anyway, any ideas (maybe past expereince) on relatively easy way to straighten/brace this end? simpson shear wall products are not made for retrofits. i was thinking of advising on interior frame.
check out our whitepaper library.
add a steel portal frame of some type at the door opening or,
add a ceiling diaphragm - either with diagonal tie-rods/turnbuckles or plywood sheathing (after plumbing the structure) to make a 3 sided shearwall system or,
add exterior buttresses (may not be feasible or desireable or,
punt.

i was thinkin' of the 1st option you listed, but i sort of like the 2nd option. thanks for the input.
