Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis Load Case.
For Nonlinear Dynamic analyses of all construction types, apply the following
(0.9 or 1.2) D + (0.5 L or 0.2 S) + 0.2 W
Dead load (kN/m2 or lb/ft2)
where
D
=
Live load (kN/m2 or lb/ft2)
L
=
Snow load (kN/m2 or lb/ft2)
S
=
W
=
Wind load, as defined for the Main Wind Force-
Resisting System in Section 6 of ASCE 7-02
(kN/m2 or lb/ft2)
