Can anyone recommend a good design book for LRFD 3rd. edition? I know it is outdated, but that is the current steel reference for the local codes I am working with.
I am in New York City and we are now using the new NYC building code '08, which is basically IBC 2003.
I know there is a 1.5 multiplier on the sliding and overturning of retaining walls. Is there such a multiplier on interior spread footings within a building?
