Chinese Codes
Chinese Codes
(OP)
Hi all
I'm looking for two Chinese codes:
GB 5009 Windload
GB 50011 Seismic load
Can anybody tell where I can find then in english? A downloadable pdf would obviously be excellent if possible.
I have found the codes on a chinese site but unfortunately my chinese in not very good so I don't know what to do.
What I'm looking for are the differences between the two mentioned and for example UBC97.
Regards
Thomas

RE: Chinese Codes
Playing on the internet I got some interesting cross references by using google:
Searching with text 'GB 5009 wind load' ending up with a chinese page. Google / microsoft suggesting installing simplified chinese language packet, doing this, getting page up, google suggesting automatic translation, and.. voila! - mail adresses to chinese graduate students making a comparison between windload basics in US/Australia and China. (Stating that there is basically not much difference, but you will have to look into details yourself)

RE: Chinese Codes
I have found a document comparing the seismic code to IBC and they seem to be similar. So I think things will work out.
Anyway, thanks for the help.
