Seismic Design in Steel -- Concepts and Examples (Part 7): Design of the Moment Frames (L3)
This 8-part course is intended to provide engineers with guidance on applying the AISC seismic design requirements, correctly and efficiently, on typical projects in regions of moderate or high seismicity. Parts 1-4 focus on seismic design concepts. Parts 5-8 go through four distinct parts of a seismic design example for a low-rise building.
Part 7 includes:
- Presentation of system/connection selection and prequalification issues
- Presentation of frame analysis
- Presentation of beam design
- Presentation of column design
- Presentation of connection design
- Presentation of base-plate design
This course is based on a past AISC Live Webinar series and Night School program.
You must purchase and pass a quiz to receive a PDH certificate for this course.
