This comprehensive and well-organized book presents the concepts and principles of earthquake resistant design of structures in an easy-to-read style. The use of these principles helps in the implementation of seismic design practice. The book adopts a step-by-step approach, starting from the fundamentals of structural dynamics to application of seismic codes in analysis and design of structures. The text also focusses on seismic evaluation and retrofitting of reinforced concrete and masonry buildings. The text has been enriched with a large number of diagrams and solved problems to reinforce the understanding of the concepts.
Intended mainly as a text for undergraduate and postgraduate students of civil engineering, this text would also be of considerable benefit to practising engineers, architects, field engineers and teachers in the field of earthquake resistant design of structures.

About The Book
Description:
A companion volume to the author’s Foundation Engineering (published by PHI Learning), this comprehensive and well-organized text deals with the structural design of the commonly used types of reinforced concrete foundations. It explains step-by-step procedure for the design of each type of foundation with the help of a large number of worked-out examples. The book provides an in-depth analysis of topics, such as wall footings, balanced footings, raft foundations, beam and slab rafts, pile caps and pile foundations.
KEY FEATURES
Explains IS Codes on the subject.
Presentation of the book is lecture-based, with each chapter dealing with one topic. This helps the teachers in their lectures.
Deals with modern concepts as well as empirical procedure.
Devotes a separate chapter to the effects of earthquakes on foundations.
Has a large number of diagrams to illustrate the concepts discussed.
The book is designed as a textbook for the undergraduate and postgraduate students (Structural/Geotechnical) of Civil Engineering. As the book deals with both the fundamentals of the subject and field practice, practising engineers will also find the book very useful.

Journal Pure and Applied Geophysics - Requested papers
The Selection of Field Acquisition Parameters
for Dispersion Images from Multichannel Surface Wave Data
Size: 0.7 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Journal: Pure and Applied Geophysics, Volume 161, Number 1, | Year: 2004 | pages: 17p. (185-201)
Abstract
The accuracy and resolution of surface wave dispersion results depend on the parameters used for acquiring data in the field. The optimized field parameters for acquiring multichannel analysis of surface wave (MASW) dispersion images can be determined if preliminary information on the phase velocity range and interface depth is available. In a case study on a fill slope in Hong Kong, the optimal acquisition parameters were first determined from a preliminary seismic survey prior to a MASW survey. Field tests using different sets of receiver distances and array lengths showed that the most consistent and useful dispersion images were obtained from the optimal acquisition parameters predicted. The inverted S-wave velocities from the dispersion curve obtained at the optimal offset distance range also agreed with those obtained by using direct refraction survey.

ISO 1827:2007
Author: ISO | Size: 158 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: ISO | Year: 2007 | pages: 12
ISO 1827:2011 specifies methods for the determination of the modulus in shear and the strength of bonds of rubber to metal or other rigid plates, using rubber bonded between four parallel plates.
The methods are applicable primarily to test pieces prepared in the laboratory under standard conditions, such as can be used to provide data for the development and control of rubber compounds and methods of manufacture of bonded shear units.
Important: It isn't the last revision (2011).
