Concrete Buildings in Seismic Regions

Bearing in mind that reinforced concrete is a key component in a majority of built environment structures, Concrete Buildings in Seismic Regions combines the scientific knowledge of earthquake engineering with a focus on the design of reinforced concrete buildings in seismic regions. This book addresses practical design issues, providing an integrated, comprehensible, and clear presentation that is suitable for design practice.

It combines current approaches to seismic analysis and design, with a particular focus on reinforced concrete structures, and includes:
• an overview of structural dynamics
• analysis and design of new R/C buildings in seismic regions
• post-earthquake damage evaluation, pre earthquake assessment of buildings and retrofitting procedures
• seismic risk management of R/C buildings within urban nuclei
• extended numerical example applications
Concrete Buildings in Seismic Regions determines guidelines for the proper structural system for many types of buildings, explores recent developments, and covers the last two decades of analysis, design, and earthquake engineering. Divided into three parts, the book specifically addresses seismic demand issues and the basic issues of structural dynamics, considers the "capacity" of structural systems to withstand seismic effects in terms of strength and deformation, and highlights existing R/C buildings under seismic action. All of the book material has been adjusted to fit a modern seismic code and offers in-depth knowledge of the background upon which the code rules are based. It complies with the last edition of European Codes of Practice for R/C buildings in seismic regions, and includes references to the American Standards in effect for seismic design.

Concrete Buildings in Seismic Regions

this is really the most complete book on seismic behavior and design of concrete buildings i ever saw after professor park and paulay book. wonderful reference.
talks about structural dynamics and RC seismic behavior, also, least book talks about structural analysis in depth, beside discusses about capacity design. another point of strength is foundation seismic design.

Reinforced concrete (R/C) is one of the main building materials used worldwide, and an understanding of its structural performance under gravity and seismic loads, albeit complex, is crucial for the design of cost effective and safe buildings.

Concrete Buildings in Seismic Regions comprehensively covers of all the analysis and design issues related to the design of reinforced concrete buildings under seismic action. It is suitable as a reference to the structural engineer dealing with specific problems during the design process and also for undergraduate and graduate structural, concrete and earthquake engineering courses.

This revised edition provides new and significantly developed coverage of seismic isolation and passive devices, and coverage of recent code modifications as well as notes on future developments of standards. It retains an overview of structural dynamics, the analysis and design of new R/C buildings in seismic regions, post-earthquake damage evaluation, pre-earthquake assessment of buildings and retrofitting procedures, and several numerical examples.

The book outlines appropriate structural systems for many types of buildings, explores recent developments, and covers the last two decades of analysis, design, and earthquake engineering. It specifically addresses seismic demand issues and the basic issues of structural dynamics, considers the "capacity" of structural systems to withstand seismic effects in terms of strength and deformation, and highlights the assessment of existing R/C buildings under seismic action. All of the material has been developed to fit a modern seismic code and offers in-depth knowledge of the background upon which the code rules are based. It complies with European Codes of Practice for R/C buildings in seismic regions, and includes references to current American Standards for seismic design.

is that only me, but eset internet security reports "this web page contains potentially dangerous content. Threat: HTML/ScrInject.B trojan". it happens for all links from libgen 185.39.10.101 site.
please enlighten me.

it happens to me on Chrome too.
if you'd rather, just go to one of these websites and search for what you want.
this is one way to avoid that message, from using the direct link.
