 Presentation Outline: Join us for a presentation on one of the American Iron and Steel Institutes latest design standards, the North American Standard for Seismic Design, AISI S400. The Standard addresses the design and construction of cold-formed steel structural members and connections used in the seismic force resisting systems (SFRS) in buildings and other structures.
During the presentation Rob Madsen will discuss the purpose and scope of this new standard and walk attendees through key definitions and the overall objectives of the document. The presentation will also introduce the Seismic Force Resisting Systems (SFRS) included in the document, and review a design example of strap wall bracing.
