I'm operating in RAM Frame 16.01.00.20
In the stability coefficients parameters dialogue box, it won't let me alter the importance factor - it is set at 1 and grayed out. My seismic drift load cases are defined using an importance factor of 1.5 as I have a category IV structure. The ASCE 7 Stability Coefficients report does not identify which importance factor is being used. I know there was a previous issue in v15 somewhere that suggested troubles when selecting a code for stability that may not match the code used to generate the load cases. The release notes I believe indicated this was resolved. How can I know what importance factor is being used in my instance?
I generated my drift load cases using ASCE 7-16, but the stability dialogue does not offer that as a selection so I have selected ASCE 7-10.
Thanks.
