This presentation will provide a rapid-fire series of ideas for engineers to consider in the implementation of seismic designs of new steel buildings. The ideas include the following: Thoughts on...
The webinar will show what calculations are required to determine the residual precompression force from post-tensioning in a slab or beam system. This force can be used to resist diaphragm...
The ICC Building Membership Governing Committee will meet on this day/time. Please check back soon to view the agenda.
ASCE 7-22 is adopted by the 2024 IBC, which will be published later this year. The changes from ASCE 7-16 to ASCE 7-22 are so numerous and so substantive that...
