Minimumn Load restraint for Column Bracing?

(OP)
Does anyone know what the minimum brace force is in order to consider a top of a column is braced?

Wouldn't that depend on the column?

RE: Minimumn Load restraint for Column Bracing?

See ASIC 360-05 App. 6.

RE: Minimumn Load restraint for Column Bracing?

I believe that would be 2% of the maximum column load.  There would also be deformation limitations.
