4.2.2 Compact Members

California Administrative Code 2019 > 6 Seismic Evaluation Procedures for Hospital Buildings > 4 Procedures for Moment-Resisting Systems > 4.2 Steel Moment Frames > 4.2.2 Compact Members
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER

All moment-frame elements meet the compact section requirements of the basic AISC documents.

For conforming buildings, the evaluator may consider this condition as mitigated, and no calculations are necessary. The deficiency is in the member capacities. Check member capacities, using member demands obtained from a frame analysis. Calculate member capacities using appropriate criteria for noncompact sections. Check the member capacities using appropriate R values (e.g., noncompact members require use of the R value for ordinary frames).
