When IEFaSa(0.2) is greater than or equal to greater than 0.35, as per 9.8.1, seismic hold-down forces based on applied loads are increased 20% as per 9.8.2. The legend under the Hold-down Design table has been revised to reflect this.
Capacity vs Applied Load
This factor is not applied if shearwall capacity is used to create hold-down forces, rather than applied loads. However if 1.2 x applied load is greater than shearline capacity, that value is used and a note below the Hold-down design table indicates this.
