However, if there are overlaps, the provisions of CBC supersede the standards provisions ( Occupancy Category tables and Load Combinations). According to the CBC Section , the SEISMIC DESIGN of all structures may be accomplished by using the provisions of ASCE with the exception of ASCE Chapter 14 (material-specific SEISMIC DESIGN and detailing requirements, which have been mostly incorporated in chapters 18-23 of the CBC) and ASCE Appendix 11A (dealing with quality assurance provisions, which is covered in chapter 17 of CBC).

2 SEISMIC Base Shear Determination Steps Selection of Lateral-Force Procedure: 2007 CBC Structural Provisions - SEISMIC Page 2 of 12 Determine if exceptions applies: 1. Detached one- and two-family dwellings, assigned to SDC A, B or C, or located where the mapped short-period spectral response acceleration, Ss 2. The SEISMIC -force-resisting system of wood-frame buildings that conform to the provisions of Section 2308 (Conventional Light Framed Construction). 3. Agricultural storage structures intended only for incidental human occupancy.

Get the Latitude & Longitude for the site from: or Step 3. 2. Go to USGS website at: and install "Java Ground Motion Parameter Calculator - Version On the very top right corner use the pull down menu to choose the appropriate Code (in this case IBC 2006) Enter the Latitude/Longitude to get the result Based on Dr. Ghosh suggestion, entering the Latitude/Longitude will result in a more accurate output.
