Notes:
1. Multiply equations given for Lb Lp by value in parentheses for W1490 (0.97), W1265 (0.98), and W615 (0.95).
2. Multiply equations given by 0.9 for W44230, W40149, W36135, W33118, W3090, W2455, W1626, W1214 and all Cand MC-shapes. In weak axis, equations given can be adapted by using Aw = 1.8bftf.
3. Not applicable to slender shapes. For slender shapes, use QFy in place of Fy, where Q = QsQa from Section E7. For C- and MCshapes, also check Section E4.

Notes:
1. For Class B, multiply by 1.67. Multiply by value in parentheses for SSL perpendicular to load direction (1.0), OVS or SSL
holes parallel to load direction (0.85), and LSL holes (0.7). Multiply by 0.85 if multiple fillers are used within grip.
2. For LSL holes perpendicular to load direction, multiply by 0.83.
3. For fillet welds, multiply by 1.5 for transverse loading (90-degree load angle). For other load angles, see Section J2.
4. For calculation purposes, FuAnv cannot exceed FyAgv. Ubs = 1 for a uniform tension stress; 0.5 for non-uniform tension stress.
Perform first-order analysis. Use 0.2% of total story gravity load as lateral load in gravity-only load combinations.
Establish the design story drift limit and determine the lateral load required to produce it.
Determine the ratio of the total story gravity load to the lateral load determined in Step 2. For ASD, multiply by 1.6.
Multiply first-order results by the tabular value. K=1, except for moment frames when the tabular value is greater than 1.1.

Notes:
1. Derived from the effective length method, using the B1-B2 approximation with B1 taken equal to B2.
Rm = 0.85/1.0
2. An additional amplification for member curvature effects is required for columns in moment frames.
3. The B1-B2 approximation (Appendix 8) can be used to accomplish a second-order analysis within the limitation that B2 1.5.
Also, B1 and B2 can be taken equal to the multiplier tabulated for the simplified method above.
4. 2nd/1st is the ratio of second-order drift to first-order drift, which is also represented by B2.
