According to Table 3.6 , the calculation of the relative storey drifts is made according to the Equivalent Earthquake Load Method described in Section 4.7 of TBDY, taking into account the + - 5% eccentricity effects . While Modal Calculation Methods are used in the earthquake calculation of the building, Equivalent Earthquake Load Method is used in A1 type irregularity control.
