Local communities have adapted for centuries to challenging surroundings, resulting from unforeseen natural hazards. Vernacular architecture often reveals very intelligent responses attuned to the environment. Therefore, the question that emerged was: how did local populations prepare their dwellings to face frequent earthquakes?
It was to respond to this gap in knowledge, that the SEISMIC-V research project was instigated, and this interdisciplinary international publication was prepared. The research revealed the existence of a local seismic culture, in terms of reactive or preventive seismic resistant measures, able to survive, if properly maintained, in areas with frequent earthquakes.
The fundamental contribution and aims of the publication were to enhance:
-The disciplinary interest in vernacular architecture;
-Its contribution to risk mitigation in responding to natural hazards;
-To encourage academic and scientific research collaboration among different disciplines;
-To contribute to the improvement of vernacular dwellings, which half of the world’s population still inhabits nowadays.
Fifty international researchers and experts presented case studies from Latin America, the Mediterranean, Eastern and Central Asia and the Himalayas region, with reference to 20 countries, i.e. Algeria, Bolivia, Bhutan, Chile,
China, Egypt, El Salvador, Greece, Haiti, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Morocco, Nepal, Nicaragua, Peru, Romania, Taiwan, Turkey and a closer detailed analysis of Portugal. This publication brings together 43 contributions, with new
perspectives on seismic retrofitting techniques and relevant data, addressing vernacular architecture; an amazing source of knowledge, and to this day, home to 4 billion people.

This book deals with sealants in the construction industry. The primary focus of the authors is on medium- to high-performance sealants used in buildings and certain civil engineering structures, as this represents the most dynamic segment of the industry. The past two decades have seen enormous advances in the technology and application of construction sealants. Many areas of knowledge converge in the building sealant industry, and the subject is of interest to diverse technical disciplines and relevant in a wide range of technologies and applications. Therefore, the book addresses a broad range of professionals—architects, engineers, material specifiers, contractors, development and technical service personnel at sealant manufacturers, researchers at universities and national test and certification institutes, and the general public who has an interest in sealants.
The sections of this book have been written with the current interests and educational background of various professionals in mind. The various sections cover a wide range of subjects related to building sealants ranging from how to choose sealants and how to determine the key sealant properties and joint design for various applications to specific application tips along with a forensic section on how to determine the causes of sealant failures. The chemistry section will be of interest to technical experts, sealant compounders, or forensic experts. More technical sections address the design and engineering of structurally glazed systems and the chemistry and properties of the various generic types from silicones to hybrids, urethanes, and others.

LizardTech GeoExpress - software solution for compression of raster images in the most popular and effective compact formats: MrSID and JPEG 2000 (corresponding to ISO standards).GeoExpress has tools for editing geodatabase, color balancing, compression in a given area and create a mosaic of images with different resolutions.
New in GeoExpress 9.5.1
Intuitive User Interface (UI) - An updated look and streamlined interface make this version more user-friendly while delivering top-quality compressed and manipulated images.
Seamless mosaicking of LiDAR files - Seamless mosaicking of LiDAR files supplements lossless compression that uses four times less storage space.
Faster default workflow for existing MrSID images - Processing of MrSID files is now faster by default when working with existing MrSID files, with cropping, editing, despeckling, AOI, tiling and more.
New format support - Compression of PCIs standard .pix raster files to MrSID means greater flexibility.

Reinforced Concrete Design Eighth Edition integrates current research and literature to give readers a modern understanding of the strength and behavior of reinforced concrete members and simple reinforced concrete structural systems. It takes a fundamental, non-calculus, practice-oriented approach to the design and analysis of reinforced concrete structural members, using numerous examples and a step-by-step solution format.
This eighth edition is fully updated to conform to the American Concrete Institute's latest Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-11), the current U.S. design standard. A new chapter discusses practical considerations and rules of thumb for designing reinforced concrete structures, including initial sizing and layout; calculation of approximate moment and shears in concrete girders; repair methods for existing structures, and a new student design project. The text also offers conceptual insights into topics such as prestressed concrete and detailing.
