The magnitude of this maximum was similar in both principal building axes.
Roof drift ratio.
The roof drift ratio is the roof displacement divided by the wall height of 235 mm 8 feet.
For seismic load applications section 12 12 1 of asce7 10 states that the design story drift of the structure shall not exceed the allowable drift listed in table 12 12 1.
The response quantities utilized in the comparisons of the case study smrfs were the inter story drift ratio roof drift ratio base shear coefficients and time history of displacement in.
The maximum roof drift ratio reached was 13 4.
Shear deformation became significant when the roof drift ratio reached 1.
The roof drift ratio is the ratio of the displacement of the roof of a building relative to the ground compared to the height of the building as illustrated in the figure below.
The behavior of the t walls was initially dominated by flexure.

The story drift is calculated as the relative elastic displacement of a story to the story below as shown in figure 1.
Expected drift ok since roof rafters are prismatic 35 gable drifts others.
For the wind design the interstory drift ratios under 1 10 year storms were less than 1 400 and the roof drift ratio was less than 1 500 which was achieved through the 2 added damping from the vcds in the primary mode of vibration.
The elastic displacement is the absolute lateral displacement of any point in the structure relative to its base under strength level design earthquake forces.
The floor accelerations met the iso criteria iso 2007 for residential buildings for 1 1 year and 1 10 year storms.
The maximum story drift calculated earlier using mrsa reached a maximum value at the roof level equal to 89 percent of the 0 010 h sx limit prescribed in standard section 12 12 1.
The maximum top story i e roof inelastic drift ratio rdr is calculated by dividing the top story inelastic deflection by building height.
D e 5 rdr c h 2 similarly the maximum inelastic inter story drift ratio isdr is given as 1 1 max isdr i e i c h d s i 3.
Actually the model parameters lateral stiffness ratio α damping ratio ξ and number of modes m of buildings which are equivalently taken as shear flexural beams affect the generalized interstory drift spectrum subjected to three representative near fault ground motions in table 1 with the close pga i e.
