Content DescriptionThis edition of the Seismic Design Manual contains more than 2,040 pages of seismic design information for steel structures. It includes hundreds of pages of comprehensive design examples, including connections, updated for the 2022 AISC Seismic Provisions. Examples are shown with LRFD and ASD design methodologies side-by-side. This revision adds design examples for multi-tiered buckling-restrained braced frames, concentrically braced frame column bases, and connection design at the intersection of braces in a concentrically braced frame. Another updated example considers partial-joint-penetration groove welds for a column splice in a special moment frame. New tables summarizes applicable requirements of the AISC Seismic Provisions as well as second-order amplifier values for use with approximate second-order analysis. An updated discussion of diaphragms considers load path, challenges in analysis, and common assumptions, along with guidance on diaphragm modeling.About AISCThe American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC), headquartered in Chicago, is a non-partisan, not-for-profit technical institute and trade association established in 1921 to serve the structural steel design community and construction industry in the United States. AISC’s mission is to make structural steel the material of choice by being the leader in structural-steel-related technical and market-building activities, including: specification and code development, research, education, technical assistance, quality certification, standardization, and market development. AISC has a long tradition of service to the steel construction industry providing timely and reliable information. As part of AISC's mission, we emphasize:
Since its establishment, AISC has conducted its numerous activities with a scrupulous sense of public responsibility. For this reason, and because of the high caliber of its staff, the Institute enjoys a close working relationship with architects, engineers, code officials and educators who recognize its professional status in the fields of specification writing, structural research, design development and performance standards. AISC represents the total experience, judgment and strength of the entire domestic industry of steel fabricators, distributors and producers. The scope and success of its activities could not be achieved by any one member of the industry. The nation shares the rewards of these activities – through better, safer and more economical buildings, bridges and other structures framed in structural steel. |
