Component and cladding (C&C) wind pressures calculated using ASCE 7-16, Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures, increased over ASCE 7-10 C&C wind loads. Between the...
This seminar will focus on wind provisions of ASCE 7/ IBC that are frequently misunderstood or incorrectly applied, including building enclosure classification, torsional wind design, and wind load analysis methods....
The webinar will focus on the cause and signs of corrosion in the concrete buildings and what measures are used to repair the structure. The repair methodology will focus on...
Steel moment frames are commonly used for the lateral force resisting system in buildings. This seminar discusses the evolution of moment frame design in the past 20 years, some current...
Proper design of wood structures to resist high wind loads requires the correct use of wind load provisions and member design properties. A thorough understanding of the interaction between wind...
The Standard for seismic retrofit and evaluation of existing buildings, ASCE/SEI 41, is required for the evaluation of all federal buildings as well as seismically vulnerable buildings targeted by some...
This session will focus on wind loads on non-building structures, including equipment, screenwalls, PV, and signs. The session will discuss ASCE 7 wind load provisions for non-building structures and how...
The seminar will provide examples of cold-formed steel (CFS) shear wall design that highlight common mistakes and emphasize smart design. In addition to explaining specific detailing requirements for lateral resistance...
Ultra High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a cementitious material that has minimum 18 ksi compressive strength and significantly more tensile strength (more than 1 ksi) tensile strength, as compared to conventional...
