For those of you who have this reference, on page 391, the third equation down the page Fc,min. It says that it is equation 8 from ASCE Section 12.4.3.2, but the equation has roe, the redundancy factor, and not the omega over strength factor as in ASCE 7-05. Is this an error. They are discussing collector elements, shouldn't the over strength factor be used here?
