Author: Prof. Tom Paulay | Size: 3.2 MB | Format:PDF | Year: 1995 | pages: 25
This article is a must have article, which was authored by the late Prof. Tom Paulay and presented in 2nd Int. Concference of Seismology and Earthquake Engineering in Tehran, Iran, 1995. It explains about seismic design strategy, particularly to RC structures, and summarized its application to ductile frames, building with structural walls, and frame-wall system.

Dear Administrator,
I have a small suggestion regarding the wording of the revised Rules as posted today.
My suggestion is as follows:
Here is the newest version (v.2) of this Forum Rules:
1- You must use the POST GENERATOR for posting a new Thread that references to new material.
2- Transparent Links are not allowed; all links must be put in code tags.
3- If you are in agreement (or agree) with a post use the Thanks/Agree button. Any post that includes thanks only will be deleted & that user will receive a warning.
4- If anyone uses 2 or more user names in this Forum he/she will be banned from the Forum.
5- If you create a Thread with information from another site or place, please provide a reference in your post.
6- Don't duplicate requests of books, software, etc. in the Thread.
This book contains the edited papers presented at the Third International Conference on High Performance Structures and Materials and it addresses issues involving advanced types of structures, particularly those based on new concepts or new types of materials. Particular emphasis is placed on intelligent smart structures as well as the application of computational methods to model, control and manage these structures and materials. The book covers topics such as: Damage and Fracture Mechanics; Composite Materials and Structures; Optimal Design; Adhesion and Adhesives; Natural Fibre Composites; Failure Criteria of FRP; Non-linear Behaviour of FRP Structures; Material Characterization; High Performance Materials; High Performance Concretes; Aerospace Structures; Reliability of Structures; Ceramics in Engineering.

Mechanical and Electrical Systems in Architecture, Engineering and Construction (5th Edition)
Author: Frank R. Dagostino, Joseph B. Wujek | Size: 22 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Prentice Hall | Year: 2009 | pages: 960 | ISBN: 0135000041
The book provides comprehensive, easy-to-understand introductory coverage of mechanical and electrical systems in buildings. Elementary engineering concepts and step-by-step design principles are introduced in a straightforward manner and supported by over 320 illustrations and 500 photographs. It includes new chapters on emerging sustainability (green) technologies and building science. It presents material that can provide the future architect, architectural engineer, and architectural engineering technician with a basic working-level knowledge of principles and practices. This book is written specifically for those interested in building heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), plumbing and piping (water supply and sanitary drainage), storm drainage, illumination, electrical power distribution, building telecommunications, acoustics and acoustical control, vertical/horizontal transportation and conveying, fire protection and suppression, and building renewable energy and energy conservation systems.

This International Standard specifies principles of evaluating seismic actions for the seismic design of buildings, towers, chimneys and similar structures. Some of the principles can be referred to for the seismic design of structures such as bridges, dams, harbour installations, tunnels, fuel storage tanks, chemical plants and conventional power plants. The principles specified in this International Standard do not cover nuclear power plants, since these are dealt with separately in other International Standards. In regions where the seismic hazard is low, methods of design for structural integrity may be used in lieu of methods based on a consideration of seismic actions.
This International Standard is not a legally binding and enforceable code. It can be viewed as a source document that is utilized in the development of codes of practice by the competent authority responsible for issuing structural design regulations.
NOTE 1 This International Standard has been prepared mainly for engineered structures. The principles are, however, applicable to non-engineered structures.
NOTE 2 The qualification of the level of seismic hazard that would be considered low depends on not only the seismicity of the region but other factors, including types of construction, traditional practices, etc. Methods of design for structural integrity include regional design horizontal forces which provide a measure of protection against seismic actions.

Abstract:
Displacement based design (DBD) methods are emerging as the latest tool for performance-based seismic design. Of the many di erent DBD procedures proposed in recent years there are few that are developed to a standard suitable for implementation in modern design codes. This paper presents the ndings of a study that uses eight di erent DBD methods to undertake the seismic design of ve di erent case studies. Some signifi cant limitations with the eight methods have been identi ed through their application to realistic design examples. The study also shows that despite all of the DBD methods using the same set of design parameters, a large variation in design strength is obtained.
