The International Code Council and the Structural Engineers Association of California (SEAOC) have partnered to release a joint publication of the 2018 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manuals. The updated series provides a guided approach to applying the structural provisions of the 2018 International Building Code (IBC) and referenced standards.
This updated, four-volume series includes:
“Providing resources that aid the career development of building industry professionals is key to our efforts to welcome the next generation of industry leaders,” said Code Council Executive Vice President Mark Johnson. “This collection is an excellent reference and study guide for the NCEES Structural Exam. Each volume of the Structural/Seismic Design Manual collection serves as an invaluable resource for civil and structural engineers, architects, academics and students.”
“We are excited for the release of the 2018 Structural/Seismic Design Manuals and the guidance they will provide to structural engineers,” said Katy Briggs, SE, SEAOC Project Co-Manager. “In addition to updates to previously published design examples, new design examples have been added throughout the four manuals to address structural engineering challenges.”
“This new edition will provide much-need guidance on numerous topics, including new seismic design provisions in the latest International Building Code, ASCE 7, and material standards,” added SEAOC President Rafael Sabelli, SE. “This will be an important resource for engineers working to learn and apply those requirements.”
The 2018 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manuals are available for purchase through the Code Council store individually or as a collection in both print and a new eBook format to use on any device. Code Council eBooks provide instant access to references and codes both online and offline with a full suite of study tools. Visit www.iccsafe.org/ebook for more information.
