Sway and nonsway conditions

Sway and nonsway conditions

Information on sway conditions (intermediate, ordinary, special, and nonsway), slenderness, and their formulation is available through Context Help (Help > Documentation > Concrete Frame > ACI 318-08 > Section 3.4.2).

Notes

  • Intermediate, ordinary, and special are only used to determine the type of seismic checks to perform.
  • CSI Software assumes that second-order P-Delta analysis is performed.
