Seismic and Wind Design of Concrete Buildings (2006 IBC, ASCE/SEI 7-05, ACI 318-05)
Publisher: International Code Council and co-branded by PCA
Pages: 555
Authored by S.K. Ghosh and Qiang Shen. This publication provides comprehensive coverage on the seismic and wind design provisions of the 2006 International Building Code®/ASCE 7-05 and discusses the response of concrete buildings to earthquake and wind forces.
Application of the seismic and wind provisions is illustrated by designing and detailing typical structural members in buildings that are located in areas of low, moderate and high seismic risk on different types of soil.
The six chapters cover:
-Introduction to earthquake-resistant design and summaries of the seismic and wind design provisions of the 2006 IBC and ASCE/SEI 7-05
-The design of an office building with a dual system and a moment-resisting frame systems in the two orthogonal directions
-The design of a residential building utilizing shear wall-frame interactive and building frame systems
-The design of a school building with moment resisting frames
-The design of a residential building with bearing wall system
-The design of a precast parking structure
This volume is a practical reference for structural engineers who want to learn quickly how to apply the 2006 IBC®/ASCE 7-05 seismic and wind provisions to the design and detailing of reinforced concrete buildings. Educators and university students will find this publication to be a valuable resource because of the many worked-out design examples. Plan reviewers will find this publication helpful in understanding the application of code requirements and will refer to it frequently when plan-checking concrete structures. Purchase this book.
