The set of companion publications includes: FEMA-350 - Recommended Seismic Design Criteria for New Steel Moment-Frame Buildings. This publication provides recommended criteria, supplemental to FEMA-302 - 1997 NEHRP Recommended Provisions for Seismic Regulations for New Buildings and Other Structures, for the design and construction of steel moment-frame buildings and provides alternative performance-based design criteria. FEMA-351 - Recommended Seismic Evaluation and Upgrade Criteria for Existing Welded Steel Moment-Frame Buildings. This publication provides recommended methods to evaluate the probable performance of existing steel moment-frame buildings in future earthquakes and to retrofit these buildings for improved performance. FEMA-352 - Recommended Postearthquake Evaluation and Repair Criteria for Welded Steel Moment-Frame Buildings. This publication provides recommendations for performing postearthquake inspections to detect damage in steel moment-frame buildings following an earthquake, evaluating the damaged buildings to determine their safety in the postearthquake environment, and repairing damaged buildings. FEMA-353 - Recommended Specifications and Quality Assurance Guidelines for Steel Moment-Frame Construction for Seismic Applications. This publication provides recommended specifications for the fabrication and erection of steel moment frames for seismic applications.

Download or read book Connections in Steel Structures III written by Reidar Bjorhovde and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1996-05-20 with total page 635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book publishes the proceedings from the Third International Workshop on Connections in Steel Structures: Behaviour, Strength and Design held in Trento, Italy, 29-31 May 1995. The workshop brought together the world's foremost experts in steel connections research, development, fabrication and design. The scope of the papers reflects state-of-the-art issues in all areas of endeavour, and manages to bring together the needs of researchers as well as designers and fabricators. Topics of particular importance include connections for composite (steel-concrete) structures, evaluation methods and reliability issues for semi-rigid connections and frames, and the impact of extreme loading events such as those imposed by major earthquakes. The book highlights novel methods and applications in the field and ensures that designers and other members of the construction industry gain access to the new results and procedures.

Download or read book Training and Reference Manual for Special Inspectors written by Houman John Parsaie and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-10-24 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual has been prepared for use as a reference materials for their day to day inspection business and for assistance in the training of new inspectors. This is also a supplement to applicable Standards, such as ASTM, ACI, AWS, etc. as well as building codes, such as UBC, SBC, etc.; thus, any references made in this manual reflects to the applicable code and/or standard test method. Inspection is the observation of construction for conformance with the approved design documents. It shall not be relied upon by others as guarantee or acceptance of work, nor shall it in any manner relieve any contractor or other party from their obligations and responsibilities under the construction contract, or generally accepted industry custom, or building codes and standards. Included in this manual are materials for other testing and inspection, for which there are currently no special training program or certifications available or offered. H.
