Abstract
Procedures for the structural engineer to properly analyze, design and specify steel joist and Joist Girder moment frames to resist seismic lateral loads will be illustrated in this paper. To accomplish this the reader is assumed to be familiar with the design and analysis procedures of ANSI/AISC 360-05 Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, ANSI/AISC 341-05 and ANSI/AISC 341s1-05 Seismic Provisions for Structural Steel Buildings Including Supplement No. 1 and also familiar with the requirements of ASCE/SEI 7-05 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures. The design methodology described in the paper will be limited to single story structures subjected to seismic loads; however, these procedures are also directly applicable to single and multistory moment frames subjected to wind loads.
