Seismic and Wind Forces Structural Design Examples, 6th Edition
The sixth edition of Seismic and Wind Forces: Structural Design Examples has been fully updated to reflect the 2024 International Building Code® (IBC®) and the latest referenced standards, including ASCE/SEI 7-22, ACI 318-19, NDS-2024, AISC 341-22, AISC 358-22, AISC 360-22, and TMS 402-22.
Each chapter presents the applicable code provisions clearly and logically, followed by practical, fully worked design examples that demonstrate correct interpretation and application of the requirements. Every example focuses on a specific code section, providing concise, authoritative guidance grounded in current professional practice. The text is organized into six chapters aligned with the primary structural design provisions of the code: Seismic design, design for wind loads, steel structures, concrete structures, wood structures, and masonry structures.
Written primarily for practicing civil and structural engineers, this book is also an invaluable resource for engineers preparing for licensure exams, structural plan check engineers, architects, code officials, plan reviewers, and civil engineering students who require a clear and reliable guide to seismic and wind load design.
This publication serves as a comprehensive desk reference for applying seismic and wind design requirements under the IBC and referenced standards and includes:
- More than 100 fully worked, step-by-step design examples
- Clear explanations of seismic and wind load provisions from the IBC and referenced standards
- Illustrations and load diagrams to support calculation methods and design decisions
- Practical guidance for steel, concrete, wood, and masonry structural systems
- Direct references to current industry standards reflecting modern structural design practice
- Example-driven instruction suitable for both daily professional use and exam preparation
