Dear sir/ Madam,

As per section 5.4.1 the lateral drift ratio (under factored wind load combinations) is given as H/500 and for single story it is given as h/400. For earthquake load (factored) combinations it is given as h/250.
H=total ht of the building
h=ht of one story


My question is for which unfactored wind load combinations and factored earthquake load combinations the drift value is to be considered. 


Also does H/500 states the limitation for maximum deflection of building as tatal height is considered. 


Kindly give some clarity on this clause....


Regards,
Chirag Chaudhari.

​The use of factored/unfactored needs to be understood. 


Unfactored wind  loads are easy to understand. They are the design wind loads without any load combination factors of 1.5, 1.2 etc. 
Factored  earthquake loads are also the design earthquake loads without any load combination factors of 1.5, 1.2 etc. The reason they are called "factored" loads is because you have used a response reduction factor R to factor down the earthquake force levels.

A

Alpa mam, Thanx for the clarification regarding "factored seismic load", as generally we mean factored load combinations are load combinations with PSF for loads applied to each load.

Thank you for making it more clear.

I have one more query.
The same clause suggest the relaxation of drift limitation to h/400 for single story.
What exactly it is for..??


Regards,
Chirag Chaudhari
