07.19.2018 | Introduction to Seismic Design - Low Seismic

Calculations, Flowcharts and Checklist
A simple one-story building, located in a region of low seismic risk, will be presented with the procedures for defining seismic loads and associated criteria for the structure using ASCE 7 Seismic provisions. Formulas will be presented and their underlying theory will be explained. The resulting calculations will be formatted so that they may be utilized as a flowchart and checklist for future use when designing actual buildings.
