Understanding the Complexities of Designing Diaphragms in Buildings for Earthquakes
Author: Des K. Bull
This is small document, but very interesting to understand the behavior of diaphragmas in buildings for Earthquakes.
I hope that it they is useful...
Best regards

The newly expanded and revised edition of Fiber-Reinforced Composites: Materials, Manufacturing, and Design presents the most up-to-date resource available on state-of-the-art composite materials. This book is unique in that it not only offers a current analysis of mechanics and properties, but also examines the latest advances in test methods, applications, manufacturing processes, and design aspects involving composites.
This third edition presents thorough coverage of newly developed materials including nanocomposites. It also adds more emphasis on underlying theories, practical methods, and problem-solving skills employed in real-world applications of composite materials. Each chapter contains new examples drawn from diverse applications and additional problems to reinforce the practical relevance of key concepts.
New in The Third Edition:
Contains new sections on material substitution, cost analysis, nano- and natural fibers, fiber architecture, and carbon-carbon composites
Provides a new chapter on polymer-based nanocomposites
Adds new sections on test methods such as fiber bundle tests and interlaminar fracture measurements
Expands sections on manufacturing fundamentals, thermoplastics matrix composites, and resin transfer molding
Maintaining the trademark quality of its well-respected and authoritative predecessors, Fiber-Reinforced Composites: Materials, Manufacturing, and Design, Third Edition continues to provide a unique interdisciplinary perspective and a logical approach to understanding the latest developments in the field.

Design of Slabs on Grade - Reported by ACI Committee 360
This document presents information on the design of slabs on grade, primarily
industrial floors and the slabs adjacent to them. The report addresses
the planning, design, and detailing of the slabs. Background information
on design theories is followed by discussion of the soil support
system, loadings, and types of slabs. Design methods are given for plain
concrete, reinforced concrete, shrinkage-compensating concrete, and post tensioned
concrete s l a b s , followed by information on shrinkage and curling
problems. Design examples appear in an appendix.
