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.

Reinforced Concrete and the Modernization of American Building, 1900-1930
Reinforced Concrete and the Modernization of American Building, 1900-1930
Publisher: The Johns Hopkins University Press | ISBN: 080186559X | edition 2001 | PDF | 272 pages | 12,8 mb
Examining the proliferation of reinforced-concrete construction in the United States after 1900, historian Amy E. Slaton considers how scientific approaches and occupations displaced traditionally skilled labor. The technology of concrete buildings—little studied by historians of engineering, architecture, or industry—offers a remarkable case study in the modernization of American production. The use of concrete brought to construction the new procedures and priorities of mass production. These included a comprehensive application of science to commercial enterprise and vast redistributions of skills, opportunities, credit, and risk in the workplace. Reinforced concrete also changed the American landscape as building buyers embraced the architectural uniformity and simplicity to which the technology was best suited.

The present work presents an investigation about the capabilities of limit analysis of rigid block assemblages in the structural assessment of ancient masonry constructions. A review about the basic concepts of limit analysis and previous works in the subject is made. A formulation of limit analysis for materials with non-associated flow rules is adopted in order to represent the non-dilatant friction failure mode in masonry. Two computer tools are developed for two and three dimensional models,respectively. The yield functions proposed are capable to take into account limited compressive stresses.
