Seismic Design of Diaphragms Composed of Steel Beams and Steel Deck with Concrete Fill Based on ASCE/SEI 7-22 Code
In Seismic Design of Diaphragms Composed of Steel Beams and Steel Deck with Concrete Fill Based on ASCE/SEI 7-22 Code , you'll learn ...
- The role of diaphragms
- Diaphragm behavior and design principles
- Building code provisions pertaining to diaphragms
- How to calculate building analysis and diaphragm forces
Overview
One of the most neglected elements in the design of buildings is the horizontal floor diaphragm and its interaction with the lateral load resisting systems. In steel structures, floor diaphragms are most commonly constructed using composite steel deck with concrete fill, although other systems may also be used.
This course covers the structural analysis, seismic design, detailing, and constructability of diaphragms composed of steel beams and steel deck with concrete fill. The importance of this course lies in the fact that there are not a sufficient number of references dealing with this topic, so the course was designed to be a guide for structural engineers.
