ASCE 7-10 Summary of Updates

[SEgeek4]

I'm interested if anyone can share a summary paper they might have that sumarrizes changes in ASCE 7-10 vs. ASCE 7-05. I know that ASCE 7-10 will start being adopted soon in some jurisdictions when IBC 2012 is adopted.

Many thanks in advance for the help!

SEgeek4,

Below are two links to a book published by ASCE that goes into great detail on that subject. I have access to it on a company paid subscription service, so I didn't have to buy it myself. But I found it a good reference.
