REVISE TABLE 13.5-1 TO ADD OVERSTRENGTH COEFFICIENTS AND CONVERT ALL EXISTING VALUES FROM DECIMAL TO FRACTIONAL FORM FOR CONSISTENCY WITH TABLE 12.2-1 (NOT SHOWN IN WITH STRIKE-OUT AND UNDERLINE TEXT FOR CLARITY). With Equation 13.3-2 is not required to exceed 3.2IpWp. For the testing alternative, the maximum seismic demand determined in accordance X =number of shear walls in the building effective in resisting lateral forces in the direction under considerationġ3.2.5 TESTING ALTERNATIVE FOR SEISMIC CAPACITY DETERMINATIONĪs an alternative to the analytical requirements.equal or exceed the seismic demands determined inĪccordance with Section 13.3.1 and 13.3.2. The approximate fundamental period, Ta, in s, for masonry or concrete shear wall structures not exceeding 120 feet in height is Extreme torsional irregularity requirements in the reference sectionsĪpply only to structures in which the diaphragms are rigid or semirigid. Extreme Torsional Irregularity is defined to exist where the maximum story drift,Ĭomputed including accidental torsion, at one end of the structure transverse to anĪxis is more than 1.4 times the average of the story drifts at the two ends of the Torsional irregularities are prohibited (see Section 12.3.3.1). Seismic Design Categories E and F are not also specified because extreme That have an extreme torsional irregularity (Type 1b). A reduction in the value of rho from 1.3 is not permitted for structures assigned to Seismic Design Category D Seismic Design Categories E or F, shall equal 1.3 unless one of the following two conditions is met, whereby is permitted toīe taken as 1.0.
