TL;DR: The ASCE/SEI 7-05 standard as discussed by the authors provides a complete update and reorganization of the wind load provisions, expanding them from one chapter into six, and includes new ultimate event wind maps with corresponding reductions in load factors.
Abstract: Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures provides requirements for general structural design and includes means for determining dead, live, soil, flood, wind, snow, rain, atmospheric ice, and earthquake loads, as well as their combinations, which are suitable for inclusion in building codes and other documents. This Standard, a revision of ASCE/SEI 7-05, offers a complete update and reorganization of the wind load provisions, expanding them from one chapter into six. The Standard contains new ultimate event wind maps with corresponding reductions in load factors, so that the loads are not affected, and updates the seismic loads with new risk-targeted seismic maps. The snow, live, and atmospheric icing provisions are updated as well. In addition, the Standard includes a detailed Commentary with explanatory and supplementary information designed to assist building code committees and regulatory authorities. Standard ASCE/SEI 7 is an integral part of building codes in the United States. Many of the load provisions are substantially adopted by reference in the International Building Code and the NFPA 5000 Building Construction and Safety Code. Structural engineers, architects, and those engaged in preparing and administering local building codes will find this Standard an essential reference in their practice. Note: New orders are fulfilled from the second printing, which incorporates the errata to the first printing.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the requirements for dead, live, soil, wind, snow, rain, and earthquake loads, as well as their combinations, for building codes and other design documents.
Abstract: \IMinimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures\N gives requirements for dead, live, soil, wind, snow, rain, and earthquake loads, as well as their combinations. The requirements described in this standard—which is a complete revision of ANSI A58.1-1982—are suitable for inclusion in building codes and other design documents. The Standard also includes a Commentary, which describes the basis of the requirements.

TL;DR: Load and resistance factor design criteria for steel building structures were developed from first-order (second-moment) probabilistic principles in a research project described in this article, which concerned itself with the background and the choice of the particular firstorder model, with the data bases used in evaluating the loading and the resistance functions, and with the final selection of the load and resistance factors.
Abstract: Load and Resistance Factor Design criteria for steel building structures were developed from first-order (second-moment) probabilistic principles in a research project described in this paper. The underlying assumptions, the probabilistic basis, the calibrations process, and the final format are examined. Specifically, the paper concerns itself with the background and the choice of the particular first-order model, with the data bases used in evaluating the loading and the resistance functions, the choice of the safety index, and with the final selection of the load and resistance factors. Load combinations and serviceability as well as maximum strength criteria are tested.

TL;DR: Load models for highway bridges are developed in this article based on the available statistical data on dead load, truck loads and dynamic loads and the model is derived from truck surveys, weight-in-motion measurements and other observations.
