Building Drift in ETABS Drift is a very complex topic in structural engineering. It involves too many factors to arrive at a suitable decision. It involves engineering judgment, the phenomenon fresh engineers might not feel. In this article, I have tried to explain what is building drift, allow...

*SEFP Consistent Design* *UBC Seismic Drift Limits* *Doc No: 10-00-CD-0003* *Date: June 04, 2013* The goal of this tutorial is to demonstrate how to evaluate building drifts and story drifts using UBC 97 guidelines. The philosophy behind Story Drift Limits is “Deflection Control”; In UBC 97, defle...

How to overcome story drift ? If max drift value at story x is 1/40 and direction is x then what changes should be made on that story x ?

Hello, I am learning SAP2000. Hence it may be a general question. I have a 4*3( X and Y direction) bay frame building . While calculating the maximum story drift and the interstory drift in each direction (x and Y) which frame should we consider among those ? Each frame has a different drift. I...

What should be the value of maximum to average displacement ratio in multi-story building?? (as calculates in Etabs) For how much building height it is must be considered and controlled in design?? Any reference material or code will be helpful.. Thanks

Dear Seniors! I have modeled a 3-storeys building in 2B zone but my drift values are exceeding the maximum limits (0.02) although i increased column and beam sizes.. Kindly, suggest me what alternatives i need to consider??? Thanks!

AOA hope you will be fine how to calculate building joint displacement from etabs specially for EQ loading and what are the code allowable limits for that .?

AOA, I am getting a maximum displacement of 3 inches for a building of B+3 (total height of 52 ft) due to EQ loading in X direction. My question is that is there any code limitations/thumb rule for the lateral sway in RC buildings. ?? kindly have a look to Story displacement and story dr...

Dear all; I have prepared some procedures that in need to your evaluation according to your experience judgement. I am saying that the following procedures that I will mention will be trusted after your comments that agree or disagree. The procedure: 1. I get results from tables------> story drift...

Hello everyone, I am looking for some answers to simple questions like 1. What is the inter story drift limit for steel columns , and what is the maximum deflection allowed at the mid span of the column which has axial load and lateral loading as well ? 2. How we decide the end at whi...
