TAG accepts structural approach: allow IRC prescriptive gravity design but require engineering in D2 seismic zones After reviewing lateral-force calculations and IRC prescriptive limits, the TAG recommended keeping IRC gravity provisions for three‑story multiplexes and allowing prescriptive lateral design in most zones while requiring registered design professionals for Seismic D2 zones or where prescriptive methods are not permitted.

The TAG has made a pivotal decision to allow IRC prescriptive gravity design for three-story multiplexes, but with crucial engineering requirements in high-seismic D2 zones!
