Revision of Iso 3010 "Bases for Design of Structures - Seismic Actions on Structures"

Abstract eng:
The first edition of International Standard ISO 3010 “Bases for design of structures - Seismic actions on structures” was published in 1988 and the second edition was published in 2001 through the activity of the working group in ISO/TC 98. The final draft for the third edition ISO/DIS:2016 is under final review among member countries and will be hopefully published as the International Standard by the end of 2016. TC 98 deals with “Bases for design of structures.” The aim of TC 98 is to create a coherent design system of International Standards in the field of building and civil engineering works. The system forms a basis for regional and national standard bodies which prepare their standards for particular types of structures and structural materials. ISO/DIS,i.e. the final draft for the third edition, has 11 clauses in the normative text and 16 informative annexes. The text of ISO 3010/DIS includes principles for the determination of seismic actions on structures and seismic design. The text does not give any specific values for factors to determine seismic loadings. The new clause of the text is 10 Non-linear static analysis. The annexes give useful information to determine the values for those factors, and new annexes are I Non-linear static analysis and capacity spectrum method, J Soil-structure interaction, K Seismic design of high-rise buildings, L Deformation limits, N Non-engineered construction, and O Tsunami actions. ISO 3010 includes almost all items and factors to be considered. Therefore it is a useful document for establishing a new code or revising an old one. These features of ISO 3010 remain the same in the draft for the third edition.
