Seismic Isolation for Designers and Structural Engineers
by
Trevor E. Kelly of Holmes Consulting Group,
R. Ivan Skinner and
Bill (W. H.) Robinson of Robinson Seismic Limited.
The seismic isolation technology helps in protecting structures from earthquake damage. This book provides both theory and practical aspects of seismic isolation technique. It is an extract of more than three decades of in-hand experience on the seismic isolation systems by the authors of the book. With the help of this book a professional can have preliminary designs of the structures in order to avoid impossible constraints and, therefore, they can check the risk analysis of the designs before hand. This publication contains 380 printed pages along with a CD having the explanatory notes, videos, Excel Data sheet and presentations related to Isolation Technique. The broad contents of the monograph are:
· Introduction
· General Features of Structures with Seismic Isolation
· Isolator Devices and Systems
· Engineering Properties of Isolators
· Isolation System Design
· Effect of Isolation on Buildings
· Seismic Isolation of Buildings and Bridges
· Applications of Seismic Isolation
· Implementation Issues
· Feasibility Assessment, Evaluation and Further Development of Seismic Isolation
Can anyone help me with a copy of
DIN 18800-2 - Steel structures - Part 2: Stability - Buckling of bars and skeletal structures.
This is a German standard so it will be no problem if it is German language.
Here is the official link:

It is such a disappointment to see that the owner of that web site just copy/pasting exact posts from this forum and there is no link to REPORT or CONTACT...
ADMIN should take some action...
After uploading the WS ETABS manual on 4sahred, (yes i posted the links on CIILEA and or my structural forum too)...but when i just googled for the manual to see if its appearing in seach or not...i was astonished to see that it was directly pointing toward the web site mentioned above. without clear reference to my blog or CIILEA forum...yes i know it was shared publicly on 4shared...so it will be visible to all and links may appear on other sites like 4shared, filetube etc...but instead of CIVILEA reference all traffic is going to that web site....This not fair for this forum...i mean we are working for this forum and the fame goes to some another web site without even permissions and reference to author/civilea forum.
