Torsional irregularity is considered to exist if /h max > 1.2 /h ave
EXTreme torsional irregularity is considered to exist if /h max > 1.4 /h ave

TORSIONAL IREGULARITIES (1aP) EXIST !!!

Notes:
The determination of torsional irregularities (plan structural irregularity type 1) and computation
of amplification factors for accidental torsion Ax, is conducted according to FEMA's NEHRP Recommended
Provitions for Seismic Regulations for New Buildings and other Structures, Provisions and Commentary
ed. 1994, 1997, 2000, 2003, 2009, which is applicable to the following building codes derived from the above
documents: (USA) IBC-03/06, ASCE 7-05/10, CBC-01/07, UBC-97, (COLOMBIA) NSR-10, and (PAN) REP-2004,(Dom) R-001, (GUA) NSE
