ASCE 7-16 sets the benchmark for how engineers calculate wind, seismic, and other critical loads to keep buildings safe. It’s the standard referenced by most U.S. building codes and regularly updated ...

A new method provides a more realistic description of loads on large-scale wind turbines than was previously possible. A team ...

Many transmission structures are tested to failure at full-scale, leading to an improved understanding of capacity compared to most structures. Typically when extreme wind events occur, the maximum ...

In a long-awaited, historic step toward “real" not cookbook wind engineering, the Structural Engineering Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers recently issued a recommended alternative ...
