American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) document
360-10 Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, is the basic reference for
the design, fabrication and erection of structural steel buildings and other
“building-like” steel structures in the United States. When applied in
conjunction with AISC 360, AISC 341-10, Seismic Provisions for Structural Steel
Buildings, is the standard reference document for the seismic design of steel
structures throughout the United States. Balloting has completed to update AISC
341-10 for the 2016 edition that will be incorporated with ASCE 7-16 and AISC
360-16 into the 2018 IBC. The document will have significant technical
modifications including new material specifications, use of steel braced
diaphragms, new column splice details, changes to BRBF provisions, requirements
for SCBF gusset plate welds, application of demands on columns that participate
in intersecting frames and a number of other items. In addition significant new
provisions related to the seismic design of multi-tier braced frames will be
provided. A new composite shear wall system has also been developed for
inclusion into this edition of the Provisions. This presentation will summarize
the changes proposed for the 2016 edition of the AISC Seismic Provisions.
