Wind Load Importance Factor for Deflection (Bug 2576)

The program now indicates in the legend to the deflection table that the shearline forces are multiplied by the ratio of the serviceability to strength importance factors, or in the case of Normal importance, 0.75. For this case, the shearline force that appears in the table is a factor of 0.75/1.4 less than the strength force (1.4 being the wind load factor.) Since the legend did not indicate that it is factored, some users expected it to be just 1/1.4 times the shearwall design force.
