NEHRP Recommended Seismic Provisions for New Buildings and Other Structures - Volume I: Part 1 Provisions, Part 2 Commentary (FEMA P-1050-1)
Date Published: January 1, 2015
The NEHRP Recommended Seismic Provisions for New Buildings and Other Structures - Volume I provides detailed seismic design criteria for various building components and structures. It covers seismic load effects, modeling criteria, equivalent lateral force procedure, diaphragm design, structural walls, foundation design, and simplified structural design criteria. The document offers guidelines on analysis procedures selection, seismic load combinations, and design and detailing requirements for materials like steel, concrete, masonry, and wood. It includes chapters on seismic design requirements for nonstructural components, material-specific seismic design and detailing, seismic response history procedures, and seismic design requirements for nonbuilding structures.
