The text of part 1, section 1 of the <br />AISC Seismic Provisions is deleted and replaced with the following: <br />1. Scope <br />These provisions are intended for the design and construction of structural steel <br />members and connections in the Seismic Force Resisting Systems in buildings for <br />which the design forces resulting from earthquake motions have been determined on <br />the basis of various levels of energy dissipation in the inelastic range of response. <br />These provisions shall apply to buildings in Seismic Zone 2 with an importance <br />factor I greater than one, in Seismic Zone 3 and 4 or when required by the Engineer <br />of Record. <br />These provisions shall be applied in conjunction with, Chapter 22, Division 11, <br />hereinafter referred to as the LRFD Specification. All members and connections in <br />the Lateral Force Resisting System shall have a design strength as provided in the <br />LRFD Specification to resist load combinations 12-1 through 12-6 (in Chapter 16) <br />and shall meet the requirements in these provisions. <br />Part I includes a Glossary, which is specifically applicable to this Part, and Appendix S. <br />Section 7-5-188: LOAD COMBINATIONS. Part I, Section 4. 1, first paragraph of the <br />AISC Seismic Provisions is deleted and replaced as follows: <br />4.1 Loads and Load Combinations <br />The loads and load combinations shall be those in Section 1612.2 except as modified throughout <br />these provisions. <br />0 <br />
