Colombia Steel Seismic Design Guide for steel structural buildings, was the Civil engineering bachelor thesis based on the USA’s Seismic Design Manual (AISC) and the Colombian Code NSR-10. Based on the local context, the document explains the recommended design procedures for the gravitational load system and then focuses on 5 different structural seismic systems (Moment Frames, Special Concentrically braced frames, eccentrically braced frames, buckling restrained braced frames and steel plate shear walls).
