Yang H. Huang, "Pavement Analysis and Design (2nd Edition)"
Prentice Hall | 2003 | ISBN: 0131424734 | 792 pages | PDF | 180 MB
This up-to-date book covers both theoretical and practical aspects of pavement analysis and design. It includes some of the latest developments in the field, and some very useful computer software—developed by the author—with detailed instructions. Specific chapter topics include stresses and strains in flexible pavements, stresses and deflections in rigid pavements, traffic loading and volume, material characterization, drainage design, pavement performance, reliability, flexible pavement design, rigid pavement design, design of overlays, theory of viscoelasticity, theory of elastic layer systems, Superpave, pavement management systems, and an introduction to the 2002 Pavement Design Guide. For practicing engineers in the design of pavements and raft foundations.

Structural Geology - An Introduction to Geometrical Techniques
Donal M. Ragan, "Structural Geology: An Introduction to Geometrical Techniques"
624 pages | Cambridge University Press | 2009 | ISBN: 0521897580, 0521745837 | PDF | 6.2 Mb
This combination of text and lab book presents an entirely different approach to structural geology. Designed for undergraduate laboratory classes, it provides a step-by-step guide for solving geometric problems arising from structural field observations. The book discusses both traditional methods and cutting-edge approaches, with emphasis given to graphical methods and visualization techniques that support students in tackling challenging two- and three-dimensional problems. Numerous exercises encourage practice in using the techniques, and demonstrate how field observations can be converted into useful information about geological structures and the processes responsible for creating them. This updated fourth edition incorporates new material on stress, deformation, strain and flow, and the underlying mathematics of the subject. With stereonet plots and solutions to the exercises available online at ragan, this book is a key resource for undergraduates, advanced students and researchers wanting to improve their practical skills in structural geology.

Hello friends,
I am asking for your help, as i would like to learn how to perform a pushover analysis in Etabs (let's say on a simple metal structure, and on a RC frame structure).
Please if someone could post a .pdf with the steps,or an example, i would be very very grateful.
It appears that the solution of N/A for Zone 5 eccentricity case as explained in SS Ray Textbook does not yield the correct resultant. Has anybody gone thru this by hand to recover resultant and eccentrities for comparison with the original loading?
Thks

Product Description
While numerous books have been written on earthquakes, earthquake resistance design, and seismic analysis and design of structures, none have been tailored for advanced students and practitioners, and those who would like to have most of the important aspects of seismic analysis in one place. With this book, readers will gain proficiencies in the following: fundamentals of seismology that all structural engineers must know; various forms of seismic inputs; different types of seismic analysis like, time and frequency domain analyses, spectral analysis of structures for random ground motion, response spectrum method of analysis; equivalent lateral load analysis as given in earthquake codes; inelastic response analysis and the concept of ductility; ground response analysis and seismic soil structure interaction; seismic reliability analysis of structures; and control of seismic response of structures.
* Provides comprehensive coverage, from seismology to seismic control
* Contains useful empirical equations often required in the seismic analysis of structures
* Outlines explicit steps for seismic analysis of MDOF systems with multi support excitations
* Works through solved problems to illustrate different concepts
* Makes use of MATLAB, SAP2000 and ABAQUAS in solving example problems of the book
* Provides numerous exercise problems to aid understanding of the subject
As one of the first books to present such a comprehensive treatment of the topic, Seismic Analysis of Structures is ideal for postgraduates and researchers in Earthquake Engineering, Structural Dynamics, and Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering. Developed for classroom use, the book can also be used for advanced undergraduate students planning for a career or further study in the subject area. The book will also better equip structural engineering consultants and practicing engineers in the use of standard software for seismic analysis of buildings, bridges, dams, and towers.
