I'm hoping someone can identify this easy question. Table 12.12-1 of ASCE 7-10 gives allowable story drift for seismic loading.
Appendix C references the ASCE Task Committee on Drift Control, and states the commonly publicized drift limits for buildings as somewhere between L/600 and L/400.
The difference between Table 12.12-1 is a factor of 10. Am I reading this right in assuming that Table 12.12-1 is for seismic loading only and that
for other loads (like wind), I should be sticking to the L/400 to L/600 range?
