Volume 3 of the 2000 IBC Structural Seismic Design Manual Series provides a step-by-step approach to properly applying the structural provisions of the 2000 International building Code (IBC). This volume contains ten examples: Five Steel Braced Frames (concentric, chevron, cross-based, buckling restrained, and ordinary). Steel Eccentrically Braced Frame. Steel Special Moment Frame. Reinforced Concrete Wall. Reinforced Concrete Wall with Coupling Beams. Reinforced Concrete Special Moment-Resisting Frame. Important aspects of whole buildings show in detail how the various seismic and structural requirements of the code are implemented in a realistic design. This manual is an invaluable resource for structural and civil engineering, architects, code officials, and students.
