ASCE7-10 section5 chapter15 Seismic Design for non building structures

[chicopee]

I have been looking thru the ASCE library for a copy of the referenced subject. None was listed, so is chapter 15 part of a greater volume of work that has to be purchased? Since the portion of chapter 15 that I am interested deals with propane and ammonia tanks stored outside, will other sections of ASCE7-10 be required in that purchase?

Yes, you need to purchase the entire ASCE 7 publication, they do not sell individual chapters as far as I know. You will want the entire publication anyway as it references other chapters and sections that may apply to your situation.

Chicopee,

I was unaware that one could purchase the ASCE 7 in a chapter by chapter manner. I've only ever seen it available for purchase as a complete document.

Like available here

Now then, depending on what exactly you need from chapter 15, you may be pointed to other external references that cover some of those seismic design issues.
