Review
Written by a panel of international experts, this comprehensive reference work covers the full spectrum of earthquake engineering topics. …is well illustrated and includes extensive lists of references and additional resources.
- Shari A. Salisbury, MCEER Information Service News

Written by a panel of 36 internationally known experts, 22 of whom are EERI members, the Handbook provides applications and practical information to help solve real-world problems faced by civil engineers...The 1500-page Earthquake Engineering Handbook is the first professional reference that brings together all of earthquake engineering's many facets.
-EERI Newsletter

This handbook is a comprehensive reference and resource work covering the spectrum of disciplines required for mitigation of earthquake-resistant structures. It was prepared by some 30 national and international experts in the various fields of earthquake engineering and is designed for the practitioner. Highly Recommended

Product Description
Earthquakes are nearly unique among natural phenomena - they affect virtually everything within a region, from massive buildings and bridges, down to the furnishings within a home. Successful earthquake engineering therefore requires a broad background in subjects, ranging from the geologic causes and effects of earthquakes to understanding the impact of these effects on foundations, buildings, structures, the infrastructure, and even their social and economic impact. The Earthquake Engineering Handbook is a comprehensive resource that covers the spectrum of topics relevant to designing for and mitigating earthquakes. In it, international experts present engineering practices, research, and developments in North America, Europe, and the Pacific Rim countries. The emphasis is on professional applications, with discussion ranging from basic dynamics and geoscience to new technologies intended to avoid rather than resist the forces of earthquakes. Covering both traditional and innovative practices, the Earthquake Engineering Handbook is the first professional reference that brings together all of earthquake engineering's many facets. Formulas, tables, and illustrations give immediate answers to questions arising in practice, and summaries of the essential elements of each topic paint a global picture from which readers can develop understanding and the ability to think beyond the results presented.
