D8.A.7 Seismic Detailing per Section 12

Seismic detailing per portions of Section 12 of IS 800-2007 can be performed by STAAD.Pro for LSD design.

The program will check seismic detailing requirements when the design parameter SEISMIC (design detailing for earthquake load) has been specified as 1. It is also recommended that an IS 1893 seismic load definition is included in the model.

Note: This is only available for design using the LFD method. It is not applicable to design using the ASD method.

Additionally, a set of automatic load combinations is included per IS 800 (in the IS 456 / IS 800 code selection) for IS 800 Clause 12.2.3 which is intended for use with these checks.
