Seismic Design with Supplemental Energy Dissipation Devices
by Robert D Hanson and TSU T Soong
The purpose of this monograph is to impart basic concepts of the supplemental energy dissipation technology to design engineers, architects, and buildings officials so they can understand its benefits and limitations in structural applications.

I suggest a new section creates in the forum on tips that the users could contribute on the managing software. This related to the experience that they have for the managing of the programs
As like for example, some tips on the managing of sap2000, civil3D, revit structure, etc. not necessarily with videoes but they might be descriptions or steps on the resolution of algun problem especially, etc...
Hello
In sap2000 i know how to define wind burdening, but i have probelm wiht passing on the structure, Any idea how to do these,or bether any tutorial (video or pdf),
Tanx in advance!!
The Autodesk Subscription Advantage Pack for AutoCAD 2010 includes a new set of TimeSaver Tools to help you work faster. You can now more easily select and work with objects when editing drawings to help streamline workflows. Several TimeSaver Tools were top AUGI wish-list requests.
New TimeSaver Tools include:
* Hide and isolate objects — Turn objects on and off regardless of layer to save time in tracking objects across layers and quickly show or hide objects as needed.
* Select similar — Select objects with similar properties, such as layer or linetype, or blocks and xrefs with the same names.
* Add selected — Create a new object for your drawing by matching the type and properties of another selected object.
* Hatch to back — Streamline the process of working with hatches by easily selecting hatches and then sending them to the back of the drawing.

ASCE 4-98 (Seismic Analysis of Safety-Related Nuclear Structures and Commentary)
Hi. Anybody has this standarad:
Abstract:
This standard provides requirements for performing analyses for the purpose of new structure design or existing structure evaluation that will lead to the reliability of structures under earthquake motions. The goal of this standard is to provide rules and analysis parameters that are expected to produce seismic responses that have about the same probability of non-exceedance as the input. Specifications of input motions are provided. Analysis standards are given for modeling of structures, analysis of structures, soil-structure interaction modeling and analysis, input for subsystem seismic analysis, and special structures such as buried pipes and conduits, earth-retaining walls, above-ground vertical tanks, raceways, and seismic-isolated structures. Non-mandatory Appendix A provides a discussion on Seismic Probabilistic Risk Assessments and Seismic Margin Assessments.

Product Description:
A wide ranging and up-to-date review of experience of tunnelling contracts, particularly those for sewerage and drainage tunnels. The review is based on the 6th edition of the ICE Conditions of Contract, but it takes note of new forms of contract which are leading towards less adversarial contractual relations.
