Built To Resist Earthquakes : The Path To Seismic Design And Construction
info:
This Briefing Paper 1, Building Safety and Earthquakes, consists of four parts describing earthquakes and their effects on buildings. Parts A and B describe the causes of earthquakes and resulting ground motions and explain how earthquake motions create various forces acting on a building. This Part C describes the types of structural systems and lateral-force-resisting elements used in buildings and how they can be used in combinations. Part D discusses the “load path” of earthquake forces within buildings.
A collection of papers presenting the design methodology of structures and relevant codes for earthquake resistance for practicing structural engineers and students.
