Clause 7.3.11 does not allow contribution of flat slab (slab-column frame) and clause 8.6.1 column strip of flat slab in resisting lateral load. I think rather than using two different terms (though having same meaning) a single term shall be used.
Anyway, my query is that, if i am neglecting stiffness of flat slab (Ieff=0) to exclude it from lateral load resisting system, how sensitivity analysis for backstay can be carried out as per cl. 8? if i have flat slab (with shear wall and perimeter frame) building (or buildings) with large podium. Do i need to modify only area of backstay diaphragm (flat slab) with upper and lower bound? |
