NSCP 2015: NATIONAL STRUCTURAL CODE OF THE PHILIPPINES 2015
NSCP 2015 Code Requirements according to the National Structural Code of the Philippines 2015 with ideCAD Structural.
The National Structural Code of the Philippines (NSCP) 2015 is a Structural design code that guides structural and civil engineers in designing and assessing buildings and other structures. The NSCP provides a standard set of criteria for structures' design, construction, and upkeep.

Analysis settings that vary depending on the NSCP 2015 are explained in detail.
NSCP 2015 Options Tab in ideCAD Structural
Specifications |
|---|
Structural system type per NSCP 2015  The type of structural system for the X and Y directions is selected according to the building's design. |
Response modification coefficient per NSCP 2015  It is the response modification coefficient value. This row is automatically refreshed when the structural system type is chosen. |
Overstrength factor per NSCP 2015  It is the strength excess coefficient value. This row is automatically refreshed when the structural system type is chosen. |
Redundancy factor per NSCP 2015  It is the redundancy factor value. This row is automatically refreshed when the structural system type is chosen. |
ELF Ct parameter per NSCP 2015  It is the ELF Ct parameter. This row is automatically refreshed when the structural system type is chosen. |
Accidental eccentricity ratio per NSCP 2015  The eccentricity ratio used during the analysis is given as a percentage. |
Use custom vertical seismic load factor per NSCP 2015  If checked, the custom vertical seismic load factor, which is entered in the "factor to use (instead of 0.2 SDS)" line, is used. |
Structural system per NSCP 2015  If the building block consists of only concrete elements, Concrete; if it consists of only steel elements, Steel; Steel + Concrete option is selected if it consists of concrete and steel elements. |
Building Risk Category per NSCP 2015  Building risk category value is selected from the list according to the purpose of use of the building. |
Story drift check per NSCP 2015  Allowable story drift value is entered. |
