Provides a set of indicators to describe a structural weakness at any floor.

Members
MemberDescription
No Defines the case in which a soft story is not present at any floor (1).
Unknown Defines the case in which the presence of a soft story at any floor is unknown (default) (0).
Yes Defines the case in which a soft story is present at a floor (2).
Remarks
The weakness is usually in the lateral load resisting capacity of the floor and can often result in total (pancaking) collapse of the floor. In residential buildings, it is most often found in the first floor due to large openings or garages. In multi-story buildings, it can be present at any floor, although a large number of case histories exist with collapse of the first floor.

Note: Soft story is only enabled if the number of stories is 2 or greater.
