Part 4: Detailed Design of Portal Frames 4 - 74 The practical application of this recommendation is to calculate H NHF as 1/200 of the vertical reaction at the base of the column. In combinations including wind actions, H NHF should still be calculated as 1/200 of the vertical reaction at the base. In calculating NHF only the notional lateral forces, H NHF , are applied to the frame. Base stiffness may be included in the analysis (as described in Section 3.4).
