Wind Serviceability - ASCE 7 CC.2.2

This check box allows you to control whether the program checks story drift for wind design using the provisions in ASCE 7 CC.2.2 (Section 2.2 of Appendix C to the ASCE 7 Commentary.)

There is also a setting for the drift limit as a proportion of story height. The default is 1/500, midway between the range of limits recommended by ASCE 7.
