Seismic Design in Steel (Part 5): Design Example Setup (PDH)

Presented by: Rafael Sabelli, SE

This course is intended to provide engineers with guidance on applying the AISC seismic design requirements, correctly and efficiently, on typical projects in regions of moderate or high seismicity. Part 5 includes: presentation of design example steps; system selection; configuration selection; base-shear determination, including wind vs. seismic comparison; determination of irregularities; and presentation of load combinations, including determination of redundancy and identifying load combination extents (i.e., which elements get "omegified").

This course is based on a past AISC Live Webinar.
