Vus is the story wind load shear and is the story lateral drift due to the wind load.
For the fifth floor column, the column is and is subjected to the following:
For the second floor column, the column is and is subjected to the following:
For each of the fifth and second floor, determine:
a Whether the columns are slender or short columns
b Determine the design moments and axial loads
Assume that for nonsway frames and for sway frames. Neglect the difference between the clear height of columns and the floor height. All columns are in single curvature.
