Would appreciate if someone could post structural drawings/details of typical canopy coverings in gas/petrol stations.
These canopies generally comprise structural steelwork (cols and beams).
Some canopies are free standing (cantilevered) whilst others extend and partially supported by the main building (T shaped canopy).
Thank you in advance.

Author: Asian Civil Engineering Coordinating Council (ACECC) | Size: 178 MB | Format:HTML | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Indonesian Society of Civil and Structural Engineering (HAKI) | Year: 2013
PREFACE
The Indonesian Society of Civil and Structural Engineers (HAKI) is pleased to host this 6th Civil Engineering Conference in the Asian Region (6th CECAR). The triennially held CECAR is the main activity of ACECC, the Asian Civil Engineering Coordinating Council. The first CECAR organized by PICE in 1998, the second by JSCE in 2001, the third by KSCE in 2004, the fourth by CICHE in 2007 and the fifth by EA in 2010. This year, the 6th CECAR is held at the same time as the annual HAKI Conference 2013.
The major theme of this conference is "Embracing the Future through Sustainability". The papers and presentations are mainly invited by HAKI and other ACECC member societies, which are also the co-hosts of this event, i.e. ASCE, CICHE, EA, ICE (I), JSCE, KSCE, MACE, PICE and VIFCEA. The technical program starts with the Keynote Addresses by Ir. Djoko Kirmanto, Dipl. H.E., the Minister of Public Works and Dr. Bambang Susantono, the Vice Minister of Transportation. Furthermore, six keynote lectures are given by the renowned representatives from ASCE, CICHE, HAKI, JSCE, and KSCE. There are eight parallel technical session for oral presentations and 24 poster presentations, with a total of more than 200 abstracts and papers included in the conference proceedings. Abstracts are printed in a paper form, while full papers of the proceedings are included in a separate USB.
There are more than ten tracks for the technical sessions. Some of them are

Constitutive models are the key-stone not only for understanding the mechanical behaviour of granular materials (mainly soils but also other granulates such as sugar, wheat, coal, pellets) but also for carrying out numerical predictions by means of the finite elements method. However the extreme complexity of the behaviour of granular materials gave rise to confusing multiplicity of hardy tractable constitutive models proposed so far. the present book comprises a selection of the state-of the-art contributions of world-wide leading specialists with the aim to evaluate, specify and re-assess the present achievements as well as to point on needs for future research.

On the Seismic Vulnerability of Existing Buildings: A Case Study of the City of Basel
Author: Kerstin Langa) and Hugo Bachmann, M.EERI | Size: 0.8 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Year: may 2011 | pages: 24
In order to assess the seismic risk for Switzerland, and particularly for the city of Basel, the seismic vulnerability of the existing buildings needs to be evaluated. Since no major damaging earthquake has occurred in Switzerland in recent times, vulnerability functions from observed damage patterns are not available. A simple evaluation method based on engineering models of the building structures suitable for the evaluation of a larger number of buildings is therefore proposed. The method is based on a nonlinear static approach acknowledging the importance of the nonlinear deformation capacity of the buildings subjected to seismic action. Eighty-seven residential buildings in a small target area in Basel were evaluated. The results are vulnerability functions that express the expected damage as a function of the spectral displacement. In order to extrapolate the results to other residential areas of the town, building classes were defined for which the vulnerability is presented in a probabilistic form that can be used directly for earthquake scenario projects.

INFLUENCE OF SOIL CONDITIONS ON BUILDING VULNERABILITY
Author: CERASELA-PANSELUŢA OLARIU ,* , IOANA OLTEANU , YEUDY FELIPE VARGAS and MIHAI BUDESCU | Size: 7.3 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Universitatea Tehnică „Gheorghe Asachi” din Iaşi | Year: may 2011
Seismic risk assessment of structures is one of the key elements in estimating and reducing losses that may appear after earthquakes. Building vulnerability quantifies the damages a structure can handle under a known seismic load. Usually, structures are considered to be fixed at the base in the design process, but researchers have highlighted the importance of considering the actual soil conditions in the analysis. In this paper, a nonlinear static analysis(pushover) is performed in SAP 2000, for a reinforced concrete 2-D frameresting on different types of soils. Comparisons between capacity curves,vulnerability curves and between the failure mechanism have been performed.From these comparisons, it was possible to extract some observations concerningthe soil condition influence upon building vulnerability and seismic risk for a RC frame.

Seismic Design and Risk Assessment of Underground Long Structures
Author: Kyriazis Pitilakis Sotiris Argyroudis and Grigoris Tsinidis | Size: 7.3 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Aristotle University | Year: march 2011 | pages: 124
• Conceptual, geometrical, and operational features of underground long structures, make their seismic behavior very distinct from aboveground structures
• Imposed seismic ground deformations rather than inertial forces dominate the structure’s seismic response
• Relative lack of well-documented case histories, lack of well validated methodologies and lack of specific guidelines and seismic code regulations for seismic design

As per the Census of India 2001, masonry housing units constitute 84.7% of the total 249 million housing units in India. Observations in all the past earthquakes in the country as well as in the other earthquake-prone SAARC countries have shown that masonry buildings are the most vulnerable to damage and collapse under earthquake Intensities MSK VII or more. Therefore, it has been realized that such existing buildings will need upgrading of seismic resistance by appropriate retrofitting techniques. The first step in this direction is proper seismic assessment to determine the weaknesses and deficiencies in such buildings which will require action to increase the strength and remove the deficiencies. This paper deals with this subject in two stages:
First, Method of Rapid Visual Screening which could be carried out by a site inspection and noting some crucial data about the building under consideration and its comparison with the damageability
observed through MSK/European Macro Intensity Scales would give the damage vulnerability level of the building. Second, a more detailed methodology is provided for carrying out the assessment of the building by comparing the actual construction details with the safe details recommended in IS:4326-1993. By this comparison, the weaknesses and deficiencies can be listed for improvement.
In some cases material testing, particularly that of the mortar quality, may have to be carried out for taking the final decision about the retrofitting methodology.

Tunnels under seismic loading: a review of damage case histories and protection methods
Author: G. Lanzano+ , E. Bilotta, G. Russo | Size: 0.8 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Department of Hydraulic, Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering (DIGA). University of Naples Federico II, Italy and+ SAVA Department, University of Molise, Campobasso, Italy | pages: 10
Underground structures are essential in urban areas and their number is continuously increasing. Even if buried structures commonly show a better performance under seismic actions than above-ground structures, during recent strong earthquakes some urban underground structures suffered severe damages and collapses. In order to understand the behaviour of tunnels during earthquake, a wide collection of case histories has been reviewed from the available literature and some of them have been described in detail. Criteria are also shown in the paper which are used to classify the damage database. Such a classification involves entity and type of damage and is aimed to highlight the possible causes of damage, in order to improve performance-based seismic design of tunnels.
