In SEAOC book V.3 page 141
To calculate the stability index "epsi sub i" they divided by 2 .
I really do not know what the 2 used for? I do not think the reason that there are 2 frames in the NS direction since in AISC 341 page 4-45, there are 2 frames in the problem but they did not divide by 2.
Any explanation?
Thanks
