An equipment vendor has given me data for sismic design of the equipment foundation based on “ASCE 7-95”, but I don't have this publication; can someone to tell me if the seismic forces under ASCE 7-95 are factored or not?
In case they are factored, according to UBC-97 (§1612.3.1) it must be...

For the design of a foundation for a combustion turbine and its generator, I need to asses the “Dinamic Shear Modules” (G) of a rock of marine origin in Venezuela, similar to the “Florida Key Stone” .
Is there anyone out there that can help providing me with the geological characteristics of the...
A couple of days ago I posted in Murali27’s “Export from Etabs” thread in the SAFE forum more or less the following:
I have heard that there is another trick to solve the problem of exporting spectral analysis results from Etabs to Safe besides using equivalent static seismic load cases. I...

On the flat slabs of a 3 story building, no beams, I have drawn several lines with no properties assigning uniform loads to all so as to model the DL of masonry nonstructural partition walls; some lines are joined to columns points, others are not. After running the model I get...
