Beyond the determination of element demands in accordance with ASCE 7 analysis methods, the requirements for member sizing, ductile detailing and capacity design principles will be presented. The seismic design and detailing requirements for structural steel seismic-force resisting systems including concentrically braced frames (ordinary, special and not detailed for seismic), buckling-restrained braced frames, moment resisting frames (ordinary, intermediate and special) and steel plate shear walls will be presented in accordance with the Seismic Provisions for Structural Steel Buildings (AISC 341 ). The requirements of ACI 318 Chapter 18 will be covered for reinforced concrete moment frames (ordinary, intermediate and special), shear walls, and coupled shear walls. Additionally, details on the design and detailing requirements for diaphragms, chords and collectors for both steel and concrete frame systems will be presented.
This course is one of ASCE's new Guided Online Courses that are highly interactive, instructor-led programs in which learners move through a 12-week learning experience with their peers. The content includes video lectures, interactive exercises, case studies, and weekly discussion topics to help master the course material. Unlimited 24/7 accessibility to weekly modules.
