Product Description:
The 8th International Conference on Building Materials and Components (8DBMC), held in Vancouver from May 30 to June 3, 1999, represents the most recent triennial conference. The previous seven conferences were held in Ottawa (1978), Gaithersburg (1981), Espoo (1984), Singapore (1987), Brighton (1990), Omiya (1993), and Stockholm (1996).
The proceedings have been published in four volumes. The first volume, "Service Life and Durability of Building Materials and Components," contains four parts each reflecting contributions made to the durability of specific building materials, namely: concrete, masonry, wood, and polymers. Within the part on concrete, there are several subsections including service life prediction of concrete structures, studies on strength and durability, corrosion, and papers on issues related to design and innovation. The second volume "Durability of Building Assemblies and Methods of Service Life Prediction," contains six parts, the first three of which provide papers related to environmental characterization, building facades, and roofing materials and components. Within this last area, roofing maintenance management has likewise been included to provide the collected works in the area of roofing as a distinct part of the proceedings. The final three parts of this volume focus on methods of service life prediction, including probabilistic and reliability methods, generic methods, and lastly, development and use of guides and standards. "Performance, Service Life Prediction and Sustainable Construction" is the third volume in which the collected works are presented in four parts, starting with maintenance management and followed by life cycle costing, performance and serviceability of buildings, life cycle analysis and sustainable design. The final volume "Information Technology in Construction: CIB W78 Workshop," represents those papers submitted to the workshop and is prepared in eight sections including computer-integrated construction, the construction process, decision-support systems, design systems, life-cycle models and facilities management, product modeling, process modeling, and virtual reality.
Collectively these contributions provide a selected overview of approaches, methods, techniques, tools, systems, and technology used to develop knowledge on the service life durability of construction and building materials, components, and assemblies, and the integration of this information towards asset management. As such, it provides an outline of the issues, insights into the research, knowledge of the techniques, and a robust discernment of useful technologies.
These proceedings will be of interest to construction researchers, practitioners, and designers concerned with service-life prediction and durability, as well as asset managers interested in obtaining knowledge about the most recent innovations currently being considered as management tools. Information technologists will find considerable scope towards the application side of their emerging technologies.

Stability and Ductility of Steel Structures By Tsutomu Usami, Yoshito Itoh
The near-field earthquake which struck the Hanshin-Awaji area of Japan before dawn on January 17, 1995, in addition to snatching away the lives of more than 6,000 people, inflicted horrendous damage on the region's infrastructure, including the transportation, communication and lifeline supply network and, of course, on buildings, too. A year earlier, the San Fernando Valley area of California had been hit by another near-field quake, the Northridge Earthquake, which dealt a similarly destructive blow to local infrastructures. Following these two disasters, structural engineers and researchers around the world have been working vigorously to develop methods of design for the kind of structure that is capable of withstanding not only the far-field tectonic earthquakes planned for hitherto, but also the full impact of near-field earthquake.
Of the observed types of earthquake damage to steel structures, there are some whose causes are well understood, but many others continue to present us with unresolved problems. To overcome these, it is now urgently necessary for specialists to come together and exchange information.
The contents of this volume are selected from the Nagoya Colloquium proceedings will become an important part of the world literature on structural stability and ductility, and will prove a driving force in the development of future stability and ductility related research and design.

I'm actually in the UK but currently doing a project that requires this code. I have managed to find a link to - 'AS1170.2 - 2002 Wind Actions' on this site. However, the document references a number of figures and tables which must reside in the main code (table 3.1 being the main one im looking for).

Concrete folded plate roofs used to cover large open expanses of space can pose complex design problems soluble only through detailed mathematical analysis. This book introduces the engineer to practical schemes and practicalities, and goes on to provide multitudes of useful design tables, which allow linear interpolation, for a large range of various schemes of folded plate roofs to help the engineer with his designs. Design examples using both SI and USA (British Imperial) units are provided using these tables.
