Welded Connections: Part 2

Welded Connections for Seismic Service

This session will discuss seismic design and ductility, the 1994 Northridge earthquake and the requirements of the AWS D1.8 Seismic Welding Supplement. AWS D1.8 will be reviewed with a specific focus on the requirements that must be specified by the Engineer, what compliance to these requirements looks like, and why such provisions are in the code. AISC 358 – Prequalified Connections for Special and Intermediate Steel Moment Frames will be introduced.

This presentation is part of the course, Welded Connections - A Three-Part Webinar.
