AIJ guideline against accidental actions is published as a book, "Introduction to shock-resistant design of buildings". This contains respect to objective and scope, design loads, member design, design criteria, non-structural element, progressive collapse and design examples. The objective of AIJ guideline is to minimize human and property damage in building structures against accidental actions based on the performance-based design. Target buildings for design are offices, apartments, hotels, hospitals, schools and public buildings. Structural systems of the buildings are limited to reinforced concrete and steel frame structures. In this paper, the overview of the AIJ guideline is introduced.
