The LCR method allows no variation from the 94 reference passive designs. To treat
off-reference designs, sensitivity curves have been produced that illustrate the effect on
SSF of changing one or two design variables. These curves are presented in Figure 9.10 for
three “representative” cities, chosen for ...
