I apologize about the simplicity of this question. Here in CA we're not used to wind drift governing design. We are working on a moment frame building in a low seismic area so wind loads are higher. We are limiting wind drift to h/400. My boss says to just check wind drift at center of mass...
Hi, question about code interpretation.
In ASCE 7-05 Section 12.4.2.3 discusses seismic load combinations where Sds and rho are included. In reviewing IBC 2006, I do not see anything that says we need to use the combos in section 12.4.2.3 for seismic design. I only see discussion about load...
