To date, the focus in the field of sustainable building has been on new building design. However, existing residential buildings inflict great environmental burden through three causes: continuous energy consumption, regular building maintenance and replacements. This publication analyses and compares these three causes of environmental burden and shows that material resources needed for replacements generally have a limited potential to reduce environmental impact. Reducing energy consumption for climate control and electrical appliances is much more effective. According to the author, sustainable measures should be tested for shifts in the kind of environmental impact caused due to the use of alternative types of energy resources and altered material quantities. The sustainability of the electricity supply is essential to decrease the total environmental impact of the residential building stock.

Author(s)/Editor(s): Hi Sun Choi, Goman Ho, Leonard Joseph & Neville Mathias | Size: 42 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner (bw) | Publisher: CTBUH | Year: 2012 | pages: 89 | ISBN: 9780939493340
An output of the CTBUH Outrigger Working Group, this guide sets out a comprehensive overview of the use of outriggers in skyscrapers. This guide offers detailed recommendations for analysis of outriggers within the lateral load resisting systems of tall buildings, for recognizing and addressing effects on building behavior and for practical design solutions. It also highlights concerns specific to the outrigger structural system such as differential column shortening and construction sequence impacts. Several project examples are explored in depth, illustrating the role of outrigger systems in tall building designs and providing ideas for future projects.

Have you a 3D SAP2000 model with a lot of defined groups inside it?,
Have you need to repetitively assign differents groups to many elements in your model?,
Have you another requirement related to a Group Managment in SAP2000?
This is a small program developed in Visual Studio, using .NET language. This software try to connect with a running instance of SAP2000 V17.3.0, then allow the user to manipulate in many forms existent groups. The manipulation options are:
Selection and de-selection of objects, with the option of "automatic select the next group" for repetitive tasks.
"Add/replace/delete from" objects in selected groups, with the same option for "automatic selection of next group".
Deletion of groups.
This features can be achieved in several ways:
Using a Group Pattern for multiple groups that can be definend using wildcards (use the "?" button for help. Alternatively check this website:)

Using a specific Group Name (or a fragment of one)
Using a list stored in your clipboard, and then pasted to the "Paste Box" windows.
Known issues:
Colors aren't allways displayed in the correct way
Select feature (and deselect) are slow if you select many (many) groups in the list. This is a behaviour of SAP2000, that refresh the window in every selection. I performing an alternative method for selecting +1 groups, that involve to store all the assignments in a temporary group.
More features?:
Please, write me an email to [email protected] or post here your idea. I'll try to apply and we can discuse if is need.
Any idea could be implemented in future releases. All your ideas and comments are needed (and welcome) to improve this tool.

Design of Concrete Buildings for Earthquake & Wind Forces According to the 1997 Uniform Building Code
Author(s)/Editor(s): David A. Fanella , Javeed A. Munshi | Size: 11 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: PCA | Year: 1999 | pages: 201 | ISBN: 0893121959
From the Preface: "...Special emphasis is given to the detailing requirements for a variety of structural componenets in regions of low, moderate, and high seismic risk. The detailed design of three reinforced concrete buildings in high seismic zones utilizing the various structural systems recognized in the 1997 UBC is illustrated. All three buildings are analyzed and designed for the combined effects of gravity, seismic, and wind loads...."
