ASCE Library is an online full-text civil engineering database providing the contents of peer-reviewed journals, proceedings, e-books, and standards published by the American Society of Civil Engineers. The Library offers free access to abstracts of Academic journal articles, proceedings papers, e-books, and standards as well as many e-book ...
The same idea also forms the basis of the current common seismic design codes such as ASCE 7-10 and ASCE 7-16. Although the mentioned idea, i.e. reduction in the base shear, works well for linear soil-structure systems, it is shown that it cannot appropriately capture the effect of SSI on yielding systems.

ASCE hosts more than 15 annual and specialty conferences, over 200 continuing education seminars and more than 300 live web seminars. [16] Meetings include "...committees, task forces, focus groups, workshops and seminars designed to bring together civil engineering experts either from specific fields or those with a broad range of experience ...
The following is a list of Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks as designated by the American Society of Civil Engineers since it began the program in 1964. The designation is granted to projects, structures, and sites in the United States (National Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks) and the rest of the world (International Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks).
Whittaker developed the technical basis for maximum-direction ground motions for ASCE/SEI 7-10, and for the implementation of seismic isolation in nuclear facilities that is codified in Chapter 12 of ASCE/SEI 4-16, and Chapter 9 of ASCE/SEI 43-19, and is documented in three NUREG/CRs published by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Citizenship: American: Alma mater: University of Patras, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute: Occupation(s) Professor, engineer, University at Buffalo Known for: Contributions to the development and worldwide application of seismic protective systems and for the development of procedures for the design and analysis of structures with seismic isolation and damping systems.
Jorge G. Zornberg earned his M.S. from PUC-Rio (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) and his Ph.D. from the University of California at Berkeley.. In 2001, Zornberg received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers under the National Science Foundation.
The Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, formerly the Journal of the Hydraulics Division (1956–1982), [1] is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the American Society of Civil Engineers.
