  • 1.  C13.1.6

    Posted 13 hours ago

    In ASCE 7-22, commentary section C13.1.6, the final paragraph mentions a specified weight limit for nonstructural components, and parenthetically gives it as 25% relative to the combined weight of the structure and component. 

    I am wondering if the 25% value should actually be 20% as given in section 13.1.1. Thoughts?
