2,319.1. Example Building Given. A12-story steel building located in downtown Los Angeles, California. The lateral-load-resisting system consists of special moment-resisting space frames (SMRFS), interacting with eccentric braced frames (ECBs). The far ends of beams in the ECBs are moment-connected to columns. The building has wo, 12-feet-high basement levels. The shear base is at ground level. (This example building is also analyzed using ASCE 7-02 Seismic provisions in Sect. 2.4.6. See Fig. 2.46.)
