Course ID: NIBS-BSSC01
Credits
AIA LU/HSW:1.0, ICC CEU:0.1, PDH:1.0
Description
The presentation focuses on the seismic design of reinforced concrete structures using the 2015 NEHRP Recommended Seismic Provisions and its primary reference standards: ASCE 7-10 and ACI 318-14. It provides a summary of the design standards, the basic ductile design principals for concrete, and the specific seismic design criteria and provisions based on Seismic Design Category. Excerpts of the Design Examples document will be presented to reinforce the general concepts.
