- Abstract
- This report presents amendments to the seismic design recommendations contained in the report 'Tentative Provisions for the Development of Seismic Regulations for Buildings' developed by the Applied Technology Council. These amendments were prepared in a review project conducted by the Building Seismic Safety Council and the National Bureau of Standards. The amendments plus the Tentative Provisions will be used in a trial design program to provide information for estimating the impact of adopting the recommendations.
