TABLE 9.5.2.2: DESIGN COEFFICIENTS AND FACTORS FOR BASIC SEISMIC FORCE-RESISTING SYSTEMS

^a Response modification coefficient, R, for use throughout the standard. Note R reduces forces to a strength level, not an allowable stress level.

^b Deflection amplification factor, Cd, for use in Sections 9.5.3.7.1 and 9.5.3.7.2

^c NL = Not Limited and NP = Not Permitted. For metric units use 30 m for 100 ft and use 50 m for 160 ft. Heights are measured from the base of the structure as defined in Section 9.2.1.

^d See Section 9.5.2.2.4.1 for a description of building systems limited to buildings with a height of 240 ft (75 m) or less.

^e See Sections 9.5.2.2.4 and 9.5.2.2.4.5 for building systems limited to buildings with a height of...
