OVERVIEW This manual begins with a nontechnical explanation of seismic loads to help designers and builders appreciate the need for seismic restraints. Chapter 2 explains the steps in using the drawings and tables and includes two worked examples. Chapter 3 outlines the general...
This manual covers the anchorage and bracing of pipes and conduits up to 16" in diameter, round ducts up to 84" in diameter, rectangular ducts up to 120" × 60", and square ducts up to 96". For dimensions of duct not specifically given in the tables, the tables may be applied using the weight per...
Preface The purpose of this guide is to provide examples related to the use of the Standard ASCE/SEI 7-10, Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures (often referred to as ASCE 7). The guide is also pertinent to users of the 2012 International Building Code (ICC, 2011 ) because the IBC...
Preface The purpose of this guide is to provide the reader with a set of examples related to the use of ASCE Standard 7, Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures (ASCE/SEI 7-05). The guide is also pertinent to users of the 2006 International Building Code (ICC 2006) because IBC...
1.1 This specification describes welded austenitic, ferritic, and duplex stainless steel tube on which the external and internal surface has been modified by a cold forming process to produce an intermittent corrugation for improved formability and resistance to seismic and other...
4.1 This guide is intended to be used by architects, engineers, and contractors who either design or install exterior stone cladding for architectural structures. 4.2 This guide is an industry standard for engineering design considerations, documentation, material considerations, anchor type...
1.1 This specification describes welded austenitic, ferritic, and duplex stainless steel tube on which the external and internal surface has been modified by a cold forming process to produce an intermittent corrugation for improved formability and resistance to seismic and other...
5.1 This guide applies to commonly used surface geophysical methods for those applications listed in Table 1. The rating system used in Table 1 is based upon the ability of each method to produce results under average field conditions when compared to other methods applied to the same application....
5.1 This standard procedure facilitates determination of the thickness of a glass construction required to resist a specified design load with a selected probability of breakage. 5.2 For optical purposes, ATCT cab glass typically utilize only annealed glass products. For this reason, some...
5.1 This test method provides a means of evaluating the horizontal in-plane shear behavior of mortar joints in existing unreinforced masonry assemblies (see Note 2). Note 2: The masonry mortar joint shear strength index obtained by this test method can be related to the masonry wall shear strength...
1.1 This guide describes the application of acoustic emission (AE) technology for examination of concrete and reinforced concrete structures during or after construction, or in service. 1.2 Structures under consideration include but are not limited to buildings, bridges, hydraulic structures,...

4.1 This guide is intended to be used by architects, engineers, and contractors who either design or install exterior stone cladding for architectural structures. 4.2 This guide is an industry standard for engineering design considerations, documentation, material considerations, anchor type...
1.1 These test methods help evaluate the performance of a full-scale suspended ceiling system during a seismic event using a dynamic seismic simulator (shake table). 1.2 These full-scale procedures are not the only available procedures for evaluating the seismic performance of...
This practice covers acoustical ceiling suspension systems and their additional requirements for application in areas subject to light to moderate seismic disturbance such as Uniform Building Code Seismic Zone 2, the BOCA Basic National Building Code where Av is less than 0.20 but...
4.1 This guide is intended to be used by architects, engineers, and contractors who either design or install exterior stone cladding for architectural structures. 4.2 This guide is an industry standard for engineering design considerations, documentation, material considerations, anchor type...
3.1 This test method provides a stress to strain ratio value and a ratio of lateral to longitudinal strain for hardened concrete at whatever age and curing conditions may be designated. 3.2 The modulus of elasticity and Poisson's ratio values, applicable within the customary working stress range (0...
