Frame Requirements
Frame Requirements
(OP)
Do column lateral resisting elements of a CANTILEVERED COLUMN BUILDING SYSTEM have to satisfy the ductility requirements for frames? Why?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: Frame Requirements
For Cantilivered Column Building Systems R = 2.2.
It will require to design this structure for loads 4 times larger than Special Moment Resisting Frame (R = 8.5).
By using this coefficient every system (with different ductilities) should be able to take requred load.
Is this what you are after?
