CHECK OF SECOND ORDER EFFECTS (P-D) ASCE 7-10 REF.

ASCE 7-10 Cl. 12.8.7 Second Order Effects (P-Δ)
P-Delta effects on story shears and moments, the resulting member forces
and moments, and the story drifts induced by these effects are not required
to be considered where the stability coefficient ( q) as determined by the
following equation is equal to or less than 0.10:

q = Px D Ie / Vx hsx Cd ASCE 7-10 Eq. (12.8-16)

Where
q The ratio of the secondary moment to primary moment
Px The total vertical design load at and above Level x (kip or kN);
where computing Px, no individual load factor need exceed 1.0
D The design story drift as defined in Section 12.8.6
occurring simultaneously with Vx (in. or mm)

D = d2 - d1 where d1 & d2 is the story displacement

respectively at level 1 & 2

d = Cd dxe / I Cd = 4.00 ASCE 7-10 Eq. (12.8-15)

Cd The deflection amplification factor ASCE 7-10 Table 12.2-1

dxe The deflections determined by an elastic analysis
Ie The importance factor determined in accordance with Section 11.5.1
Vx The seismic shear force acting between Levels x and x - 1 (kip or kN)
hsx The story height below Level x (in. or mm)

The stability coefficient (q) shall not exceed qmax determined as follows:

qmax = 0.5 / β Cd ≤ 0.25 ASCE 7-10 Eq. (12.8-17)

b= 1.00 ASCE 7-10 Cl. 12.8.7

Where the stability coefficient (q) is greater than 0.10 but less than or equal to qmax the incremental
related to P-Delta effects on displacements and member forces shall be determined by rational analysis.
Alternatively, it is permitted to multiply displacements and member forces by 1 / (1 - q)
Where the P-Delta effect is included in an automated analysis Eq. 12.8-17 shall still be satisfied,
the value of q computed from Eq. 12.8-16 using the results of the P-Delta analysis is permitted to be divided by
(I + q) before checking Eq. 12.8-17
Where q is greater than qmax, the structure is potentially unstable and shall be redesigned.
