In the presentation which can be seen here
the movement of the floor system is accounted for around column 79, specifically at around 55 minutes in.

The particular slide on which this can be seen can be viewed here on page 69/85

As can be seen, the movement to the East is expressed as a positive value in the x axis of 1.92"
You can also see to the right of that figure that the y axis value is also positive and is 0.73"
What this means is that the floor, which as Dr Hulsey makes clear remains composite and moves with the steel, "it moves together".
The movement is being expressed relative to the original position of the column and the elements, but is being expressed within the context of the movement of entire building.
So when Dr Hulsey stated that the Column and the whole thing moved 2" East, he was correct
(less the 0.08") BU and he was stating it relative to their original position.

55:24 "we have a movement of that section right there. of almost 2 inches. but not west. it went east. totally different.
The floor moved east at column 79. not west.
55:39 and by the way, they moved together. They didnt move seperately.
