ASCE 7-16 Changes on Seismic ground motion Values

Hello, welcome to my YouTube channel! There are huge changes in ASCE 7-16 on seismic ground motions values comparing to ASCE7-10. This could cause substantially higher seismic loads for your projects. The good news is that you can watch my channel to run an site specific response analysis to considerably reduce the seismic load. This is not only good for your project, but also help us fight for the climate change since less steels and concretes are used for smaller seismic loading. 1.9 tons of CO2 per ton of steel produced 1.0 tons of CO2 per ton of cement produced I hope you can perform the site specific response analysis after watching the videos. You can always reach out me as following for any questions and supports. Let us work together for economic designs with a good cause – fighting climate change.
