Draft Seismic Standard for Federal Buildings
This standard has been prepared for uniform use by all Federal agencies as an adaptation of existing voluntary standards, model building codes, Federal regulations, and research reports. It is closely based on the seismic requirements of the Uniform Building Code (which, in turn, are based on the Recommended Lateral Force Requirements and Commentary published by the Structural Engineers Association of California). However, there are many instances of substantive differences from the UBC. Several important provisions, including the seismic zoning map, have been adapted from the Tentative Provisions for the Development of Seismic Regulations for Buildings developed by the Applied Technology Council. A number of provisions have been added to this standard that are based on the current practices and policies of various Federal agencies. Furthermore, this standard is organized considerably differently from the UBC and many provisions are phrased differently.
