1The Allowable Vertical(Dead + Live) Loads are indicated by P=0 k, P=2 k, P=4 k. This Load is assumed to be acting simultaneously
  on both columns of the frame, in addition to the Seismic (Earthquake) or Wind Load. All of the appropriate 1997 UBC Load
  Combinations have been included,therefore enter this table with E, not with E/1.4.

2 Drift is calculated using Risa 2D, and Allowable Stress Design(D+L+E/1.4) and (D+L+W).
