4.1.8.3.(4)ATTRIBUTION:
Functional Statement:
F20
To support and withstand expected loads and forces.
Objective:
OS2.1
APPLICATION:
Design of the Seismic Force Resisting System in buildings.
This applies to buildings described in Sentence
1.3.3.2.(1) of Division A and to buildings to which Part 9 applies [see Sentence
1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application
of Part 9] that are required to be designed in accordance with the requirements
of Part 4.
INTENT:
To limit the probability that elements other than the Seismic
Force Resisting System will be relied upon to resist the specified earthquake
loads, which could lead to structural failure of the Seismic Force Resisting
System, which could lead to harm to persons.
ATTRIBUTION:
Functional Statement:
F20
To support and withstand expected loads and forces.
F22
To limit movement under expected loads and forces.
Objective:
OP2.1, OP2.4
APPLICATION:
Design of the Seismic Force Resisting System in buildings.
This applies to buildings described in Sentence
1.3.3.2.(1) of Division A and to buildings to which Part 9 applies [see Sentence
1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application
of Part 9] that are required to be designed in accordance with the requirements
of Part 4.
INTENT:
To limit the probability that elements other than the Seismic
Force Resisting System will be relied upon to resist the specified earthquake
loads, which could lead to:
- insufficient strength to transfer loads to the ground, and
- insufficient stiffness to maintain lateral deformation within acceptable limits.
This is to limit the probability of the excessive
deformation of, or excessive stress in, the Seismic Force Resisting System,
which could lead to:
- damage to the building, or
- damage to the building, which could impede the intended use and occupancy of the building.
