Collectors and Drag on light wood framing structure
(OP)
Hi, i wanted to know if i have to use the omega Factor(2.8)(UBC 97) when i´m calculating a drag or a colector in a light wood framing structure with a moment frames in some lines

Don't forget, when you calculate Omega it is strength level, then you can take a 1.7 stress increase for working stress AND you can take the 1.33 duration factor for wood elements.

The seismic drift determination process is outlined in section 12.8.6. The Drift & Deformation limits, etc are identified in section 12.12 and the allowable story drifts in table 12.12-1.
