3. CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR SEISMIC DISPLACEMENT

Refer to Shelving Calculations Pg 5. Please address the following:

a. The calculations appear to base the separation on an elastic rack displacement using allowable stress methods. Please note that seismic drift is required to be based on strength-level analysis. Please provide revised analysis.

b. The calculations do not appear to address inelastic drift (deflection amplification) in determining the maximum rack displacement. Please clarify design.

c. The plans do not note the requirement for separation between the racking system and the rest of the structure. Please note the requirements on the plans.
