The standard itself is interwoven with explanatory commentary, which is marked to distinguish it from the mandatory standard. The standard covers general requirements; performance objectives
and seismic hazards; evaluation and retrofit requirements; tier one screening; tier two deficiency-based evaluation and retrofit; tier three systematic evaluation and retrofit; analysis
procedures and acceptance criteria; foundations and geologic site hazards; steel; concrete; masonry; wood and cold-formed steel light frame; architectural, mechanical, and electrical
components; seismic isolation and energy dissipation; system-specific performance procedures; and tier one checklists. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
