Seismic Design Manual CFE 2008 Mexico

The Design Manual of Civil Works, since its first edition in 1969, by technological knowledge and experience the fruit of the hard work of engineers and Experts from the Commission Federal de Electricidad, and Mexican researchers
universities and research centers, arising from design, implementation and operation of the works carried out by the CFE.
During his lifetime, the Manual has been revised total and partial to become an indispensable reference document for many of the works of engineering that are built in the country and Latin America. Total chapters of the Manual constitute a work of incalculable dimensions Mexican engineering as reflects the best of their knowledge and experiences. Its wide-edge content as have also become a complementary text in universities and schools engineering areas.
This revised edition of the Design for Wind chapter incorporates data and experiences of strong hurricanes that have affected Mexico and other countries In recent years, and the results of numerous studies of its effects on modern structures, and is another example of the effort that the FCC Electricity done to consolidate itself as a world class company.

THIS IS A SPANISH TEXT!
Only allowable cause is a CODE

It looks like some of you are really interested in this Mexican Design Manual. Please beware that this IS NOT an official code, but a MODEL building code (at most); although it is widely used and is by far the most referenced document in Mexico for seismic design, it doesn´t replace an existing local official code (if it happen to exist, of course).

If confusing enough, think of FEMA documents in USA: you may use them for your evaluation/design, but they DO NOT replace the applicable official building code which ultimately you have to (at least) comply with.

Anyway, for all of you that want to learn something about this Seismic Design Manual but can´t read in spanish, I would recommend the following paper that was published in Earthquake Spectra, the specialized technical journal of the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute EERI:

Hi!

Could you upload the program PRODISIS (Programa para Diseño Sísmico) that brings this manual?

Here is PRODISIS software, it's the small package (about 6MB)), if you have problems, you need to install the .NET libraries, ask for them if you need them (around 200MB).
