This book has been written to assist candidates preparing for the
seismic principles examinations. It is a comprehensive guide and
reference for self study based on the 1997 edition of the Uniform
Building Code. An introductory chapter describes the Califoia
Special Civil Engineer and Structural Engineer Exams and the NCEES
Structural Examinations. Subsequent chapters cover General Seismic
Principles; Static and Dynamic Lateral Force Procedures for
Buildings; Seismic Design of Steel, Concrete, Wood, and Masonry
Structures; and Seismic Design of Bridges. 30% text, 70% problems
and solutions.

Woodhead Publishing Limited and CRC Press, 2009, 260 pages Glass is increasingly being used as a structural material in new buildings. The structural envelope may consist either entirely or partially of glass, and this trend to eschew traditional materials such as brick and concrete for steel-framed, glass clad buildings presents inherent problems. A major issue is the performance of glazing during earthquakes and extreme climatic events, such...

Sрringer, 2006, 572 pages Earthquakes affecting urban areas can lead to catastrophic situations and hazard mitigation requires preparatory measures at all levels. Structural assessment is the diagnosis of the seismic health of buildings. Assessment is the prelude to decisions about rehabilitation or even demolition. The scale of the problem in dense urban settings brings about a need for macro seismic appraisal procedures because large numbers...
