wind load and earthquake load calcs per boca
does anyone have a good reference, with examples, for wind and seismic calcs per boca?
the seismic is based on seoc’s blue book. most of the building codes are on their approach and procedure. many structural engineering text books and hand books have worked out examples.
the wind is simple application of the formals and coefficients from the tables. i also believe that boca allows the use of asce 7-98 to compute wind loads. i happen to be a big fan of asce 7 despite its short comings. at least it tends to use more logical approach to wind load calculations. also pressures are more realistic. if you choose to use asce 7-87, there is a design guide that goes with it. it can be purchased from asce direct. it has many worked out examples. the book can be found on asce web site
i better start checking my typing before posting. i meant seaoc not seoc
sorry guys
