Based on new changes to ASCE 7 and ACI 318
Based current seismic research and observations
Some of these changes are:
Recognition of jointed panel construction
Recognition of strong and ductile connections in precast frames
Recognition and requirements for connections in precast walls
Additional changes are:
Modification of drift computation and limiting drift
Deformation compatibility of elements
Additional soil type classifications
Special considerations locations near seismic faults
Consideration of redundancy and reliability in strength design requirements
