Objective | OS2 Structural Safety |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Calculation of torsional sensitivity for structures
with rigid diaphragms, to be used in the determination of structural irregularity
Type 7 in Article 4.1.8.6.
Exceptions:

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the determination of the torsional
sensitivity will not use a three-dimensional elastic model of the Seismic
Force Resisting System with the static lateral loads at each floor level applied
to account for accidental eccentricity, which could lead to structural failure,
which could lead to harm to persons. |
