Colleagues:

What is the consequence of having a building with horizontal irregularities #1a and 2, Table 12.3-1 ASCE 7-10? Seismic design category D. I understand that seismic forces have to be increased for connections to diaphragms and collectors (connections?. Is there any other impact?. I am using a rho factor = 1.3.
