Syntax
public enum SeismicMomentFrameTypeFields
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Automatic | Choose between OMF, IMF, and SMF based on settings from setup |
| IMF | Intermediate Moment Frame connections are designed to be installed in moderate seismic regions. |
| OMF | Ordinary Moment Frame connections provide less resistance to lateral motion than IMF or SMF frames and are only recommended for non-seismic or low seismic regions. |
| SMF | Special Moment Frame connections are designed to resist flexural, axial, and shearing actions that result as a building sways through multiple inelastic displacement cycles due to a strong earthquake. |
