About this document

Foundation Analysis for Seismic Design by Yoshua Yang is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses the analysis and design of shallow foundations for two framing systems of a seven-story office building in Los Angeles, California. It provides the geotechnical parameters for the medium dense sand soils, including allowable bearing pressures and capacities. It also lists the seismic parameters and design approach, which first focuses on selecting footing sizes to control settlement before checking capacity. Reinforced concrete will be used for the foundations.
