Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Personal comment:
Worth reading if you're using Sap2000, Eurocode 8 and willing to do some hand calculation.
SUMMARY:
Based on the need for effective solutions of structures response to seismic loading, this thesis includes the theoretical background, and explanation of several methods. There are many theories in the community, but the ones chosen to be looked closer at here are Modal response spectrum analysis for symmetric and asymmetric plan structures, Modal Pushover Analysis for symmetric and asymmetric plan structures and Linear and Non-Linear Response History Analysis. The theory has been adapted from published papers and books on the topic.
The report is divided into three main sections, numerical methods for solving of dynamic problems, elastic analysis and inelastic analysis. The chapters on Elastic and Inelastic analysis are further divided into sections on symmetric and asymmetric plan.
Elastic analyses by hand calculations and SAP2000 have been performed on a 2D-frame, a SAP2000 Elastic Response spectrum analysis has been performed on a 3D-frame, and an inelastic modal pushover analysis in SAP2000 has been performed on a 2D frame.
The target for this inquiry is to discover advantages and disadvantages in the different methods and comparing them.

Hi all,
First of all, I'm not sure if this question belongs under codebook; therefore, I write here (I'm not specifically requesting any code books per say).
I'm Korean American student and I've been curious as to if there are any standardized structural design reference book in South Korea. In US, there are IBC & ASCE7-10 that we, students use for the design loading and then there are AISC Steel Design Manual, MSJC, ASD, & ACI319 that we use to design specific material. I was hoping to find out if there are any equivalent reference books that I can find in South Korea. As of right now, I'm coming to the conclusion that IBC is the way to go.

Comprehensive Structural Integrity ( 10 Vol. Set)
Author: Ian Milne, R. O. Ritchie, B.L. Karihaloo | Size: 172 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Elsevier Science | Year: 2003 | pages: 5105 | ISBN: 9780080437491
The aim of this major reference work is to provide a first point of entry to the literature for the researchers in any field relating to structural integrity in the form of a definitive research/reference tool which links the various sub-disciplines that comprise the whole of structural integrity.Special emphasis will be given to the interaction between mechanics and materials and structural integrity applications. Because of the interdisciplinary and applied nature of the work, it will be of interest to mechanical engineers and materials scientists from both academic and industrial backgrounds including bioengineering, interface engineering and nanotechnology.The scope of this work encompasses, but is not restricted to:fracture mechanics, fatigue, creep, materials, dynamics, environmental degradation, numerical methods, failure mechanisms and damage mechanics, interfacial fracture and nano-technology, structural analysis, surface behaviour and heart valves.The structures under consideration include:pressure vessels and piping, off-shore structures, gas installations and pipelines, chemical plants, aircraft, railways, bridges, plates and shells, electronic circuits, interfaces, nanotechnology, artificial organs, biomaterial prostheses, cast structures, mining... and more. Case studies will form an integral part of the work.

In situations where a raft foundation alone does not satisfy the design requirements, it may be possible to enhance the performance of the raft by the addition of piles. The use of a limited number of piles, strategically located, may improve both the ultimate load capacity and the settlement and differential settlement performance of the raft. This paper discusses the philosophy of using piles as settlement reducers and the conditions under which such an approach may be successful. Some of the characteristics of piled raft behaviour are described. The design process for a piled raft can be considered as a three-stage process. The first is a preliminary stage in which the effects of the number of piles on load capacity and settlement are assessed via an approximate analysis. The second is a more detailed examination to assess where piles are required and to obtain some indication of the piling requirements. The third is a detailed design phase in which a more refined analysis is employed to confirm the optimum number and location of the piles, and to obtain essential information for the structural design of the foundation system. The selection of design geotechnical parameters is an essential component of both design stages, and some of the procedures for estimating the necessary parameters are described. Some typical applications of piled rafts are described, including comparisons between computed and measured foundation behaviour.
