Concise, visual explanations of code provisions that apply to seismic loads

This practical guide provides engineers with a visual overview of the code provisions pertinent to seismic loads. Seismic Loads: Time-Saving Methods Using the 2018 IBC and ASCE/SEI 7-16 contains simplified, step-by-step procedures that can be applied to determine seismic design criteria and requirements. Included are design aids, figures, flowcharts, and examples that clearly demonstrate each procedure. Companion online Excel spreadsheets can be used in practice to calculate loads accurately and efficiently.

Contains step-by-step procedures for:

Seismic ground motion values
Site-specific ground motion
Seismic design category
