ABSTRACT

In this report, the applicability of conventional and advanced inelastic static (pushover) analysis for seismic response assessment is investigated. A methodology is first suggested for evaluating the performance of pushover methods, based on a quantitative measure for the difference in response between pushover and inelastic dynamic analysis which is deemed to be the most accurate, but still expensive numerical method available. This methodology is applied on a set of eight different structural systems, covering various levels of irregularity in plan and elevation, structural ductility and directional effects. An extensive series of pushover analysis results, monitored on various structural levels is presented and compared to inelastic dynamic analysis under various strong motion records. General conclusions on the applicability of inelastic static analysis for seismic response assessment are finally discussed.

  Sedimentary Rock in the Field by Tucker
Posted by: pppppp - 05-22-2010, 02:42 AM - Forum: Geology - Replies (1)

Sedimentary Rock in the Field

[Image: info.png]
Sedimentary Rocks in the Field 3rd Edition discusses the various sedimentary rock-types, textures and structures as they can be recorded in the field. A chapter on fossils is included since these are important components of sedimentary rocks and can provide useful information. The concluding section deals briefly with facies identification and points the way towards facies interpretations and the identification of sequences and cycles.

  Efficient design of piled foundations for low-rise housing

Efficient design of piled foundations for low-rise housing

[Image: 84334293832702991184.jpg]

[Image: info.png]
© NHBC Foundation
NF21
Published by IHS BRE Press on behalf of the NHBC Foundation
February 2010
ISBN 978-1-84806-106-4

As part of the NHBC Foundation’s mission to provide the industry with useful and relevant guidance, our latest publication considers piled foundations for low rise housing developments. This guide explores various design approaches and the associated environmental and economic advantages. Money can be saved by adopting a more efficient pile design and environmental benefits gained by reducing the use of natural resources.
The guide discusses the selection and design of piled foundations, with reference to the relevant design codes, standards and guidance which were current at the time of publication. The design of efficient foundations for low rise housing in the UK is also discussed in a more general sense.
A review of current practice was undertaken during the preparation of this guidance and the results used to identify areas where additional guidance would be useful. The guide attempts to address these, in particular in relation to the selection of foundations, site investigation practice, and design and construction methods for piled foundations.
Reflecting increasing public concern about environmental issues, this guide also addresses some of the main considerations. It deals with the environmental impacts of foundations in broad terms, and places some emphasis on the assessment of embodied carbon. Sustainability is also considered in terms of the potential benefits from use of ‘energy piles’.
The NHBC Foundation’s work helps promote good practice within the housebuilding industry and this guide is aimed at housebuilders, consultants, piling contractors and building control bodies. I hope you find this guide of use – I believe it provides a valuable resource in terms of the drive for efficiency and sustainability within the housebuilding industry.

* Richly illustrated examples of detail design, case studies, and practical exercises.
* New and revised patterns showing form, constructibility, and aesthetics.

  Manual for the design of reinforced concrete building structure 2002
Posted by: Grunf - 05-20-2010, 03:08 PM - Forum: Concrete - Replies (11)

Manual for the design of reinforced concrete building structure 2002

[Image: 11461887426397578295.jpg]

[Image: info.png]
In 1985 the Institution published its ‘green’ book, the Manual for the design of reinforced concrete building structures, drafted jointly with the ICE.
Written by and for practising designers, in a concise format, it reflects the logical sequence of operations which a designer follows, and was compatible with British standard BS 8110 at that time.
This revised 2nd edition encapsulates changes arising from:
- amendments to BS 8110, which was republished in 1997 and further amended in 2001;
- the publication of BS 8002 for the design of earth retaining structures; and
- the publication of BS 8666, which superseded BS 4466.
All the amendments are signified by a line in the margin.
The general scope of the manual remains unchanged in that it still covers the majority of reinforced concrete buildings.
It continues to offer practical guidance on how to design safe, robust and durable structures.
