Storey Drift
The Storey Drift workflow tool is used to post-process building drifts on various locations in the structure which can be used to check compliance against relevant building standards.
In PRIMER, you can setup drift locations, defining nodes for each storey of the building.
In T/HIS, storey drifts are calculated for each of the locations you defined in PRIMER and then storey curves are generated – plotted on graphs.
This allows you to interrogate the global behaviour of the structure and make changes to member designs or structural layout if necessary.
Finally, you can generate automated reports with the REPORTER templates provided.
In the report, corresponding D3PLOT views are paired with each T/HIS plot to visually locate the drifts in the model.
