SEAONC is the northern California section of the statewide Structural Engineers Association of California (SEAOC). SEAOC's Recommended Lateral Force Requirements, a.k.a. "Blue Book", first published in 1959, has since influenced the development of seismic analysis and design provisions in building codes nationwide. [2]
Computers and Structures, Inc. (CSI) is a structural and earthquake engineering software company founded in 1975 [1] and based in Walnut Creek, California, with additional office location in New York. [2] The structural analysis and design software CSI produce include SAP2000, CSiBridge, ETABS, SAFE, PERFORM-3D, and CSiCOL.
The following is a list of notable structural engineering companies. Only companies with a Wikipedia article should be included in the list. Many of the companies included in this list do not practice only structural engineering, but may also be involved in civil engineering, architecture, and other related practices.
The National Council of Structural Engineers Associations (NCSEA) is a professional association in the United States, with member organizations in 44 states. [1] NCSEA was established in 1993. [ 2 ] As of 2003, NCSEA represented 12,000 individual engineers, who are members of local state associations.
In 10 US states, including Alaska, California, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and others, there is an additional license or authority for Structural Engineering, [7] obtained after the engineer has obtained a Civil Engineering license and practiced an additional amount of time with the Civil Engineering license. The scope ...
Structural engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering in which structural engineers are trained to design the 'bones and joints' that create the form and shape of human-made structures. Structural engineers also must understand and calculate the stability , strength, rigidity and earthquake-susceptibility of built structures for ...
Edward L. Wilson (born 1931) is an American civil engineer and academic known for his contributions to the development of finite element method.He was the T. Y. and Margaret Lin Professor in Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley and is professor emeritus, civil and environmental engineering, UC Berkeley.
Shallow foundations of a house versus the deep foundations of a skyscraper. Foundation with pipe fixtures coming through the sleeves. In engineering, a foundation is the element of a structure which connects it to the ground or more rarely, water (as with floating structures), transferring loads from the structure to the ground.
