Detailed application of a technology for the formulation and expression of standards applicable to the American National Standard Building Code requirements for minimum design loads in buildings and other structures (ANSI A58.1-1972)
Abstract
This investigation applies decision-table and information-network technology in the analysis of the American National Standard Building Code Requirements for Minimum Design Loads in Building and Other Structures (ANSI A58.1-1972). Part 1 summarizes the logic and technology available for decision-table and information-network analysis. It also sets down a rationale for the attempt to apply this logic at the requisite level of detail and develops the concepts, policies, and procedures that enable such application. Part 2 applies the available technology to the ANSI Standard, and in a detailed commentary on each decision table and on the information network, sets down the questions raised by the analysis of each.
