Pre- and Post- Conference Workshops ASCE Substation Structure Design Guide - #1 Sunday, August 10, 8:00 am - 12:00 Noon The ASCE Committee on Electrical Transmission Structures, CETS, has been developing a design guide on electrical substation structures. The guide addresses structural loading, deflection criteria, design codes, and anchorage to foundations. The document is intended to be used with companion documents, such as IEEE's Standard 693 "Recommended Practice for Seismic Design of Substations," and Standard 605 "Guide for the Design of Rigid-Bus Structures." This class will provide an overview of the significant topics covered by the ASCE Substation Structure Design Guide. Handouts include a draft version of the Substation Structure Design Guide. Speakers to be determined.
