Design Criteria Based on Structural Irregularity
When your structure has a horizontal or vertical irregularity, do you find yourself trying to quickly recall the additional seismic design requirements you need to consider? Two quick examples: Is a 3-D analysis required? Is the irregularity allowed in the seismic design category where the structure is to be built? In December 2016, Kimberley Robinson, […]
Helpful Flowcharts for Permitted Seismic Design Analysis Methods per ASCE7-10
When starting a new project, is it a challenge to determine what design method you can use for the seismic analysis of your structure? Do you find yourself spending a significant amount of time researching associated code provisions? In the December 2016 SE University Session, Structural Irregularities per the ASCE7-10 Seismic Design Requirements, Kimberley Robinson, […]
