Description

Authored by S.K. Ghosh and Qiang Shen, Seismic and Wind Design of Concrete Buildings (2006 IBC, ASCE/SEI 7-05, ACI 318-05) provides comprehensive coverage on the seismic and wind design provisions of the 2006 International Building Code and ASCE/SEI 7-05, and discusses the response of concrete buildings to earthquake and wind forces.

Application of the seismic and wind provisions is illustrated by designing and detailing typical structural members in buildings that are located in areas of low, moderate and high seismic risk on different types of soil.

The six chapters cover:

Introduction to earthquake-resistant design and summaries of the seismic and wind design provisions of the 2006 IBC and ASCE/SEI 7-05.
The design of an office building with a dual system and a moment-resisting frame system in the two orthogonal directions.
The design of a residential building utilizing shear wall-frame interactive and building frame systems.
The design of a school building with moment resisting frames.
The design of a residential building with bearing wall system.
The design of a precast parking structure.

This volume is a practical reference for structural engineers who want to learn quickly how to apply the 2006 International Building Code and ASCE 7-05 seismic and wind provisions to the design and detailing of reinforced concrete buildings. Educators and university students will find this publication to be a valuable resource because of the many worked-out design examples. Plan reviewers will find this publication helpful in understanding the application of code requirements and will refer to it frequently when plan-checking concrete structures.

Excerpt from the Preface
This third edition updates this publication to the 2006 edition of the International Building Code (IBC). Chapter 1 has been updated to reflect the changes from the 2003 to the 2006 edition of the IBC. For concrete design and construction, the 2006 IBC had adopted ACI 318-05 with some modifications.
