  • Seismic Risk Assessment and Retrofitting

    With Special Emphasis on Existing Low Rise Structures

    Edited by Alper Ilki, Faruk Karadogan, Sumru Pala, Ercan Yuksel ...
    Series Book 10 - Geotechnical, Geological and Earthquake Engineering
    Many more people are coming to live in earthquake-prone areas, especially urban ones. Many such areas contain low-rise, low-cost housing, while little money is available to retrofit the buildings to avoid total collapse and thus potentially save lives. The lack of money, especially in developing countries, is exacerbated by difficulties with administration, implementation and public awareness.The ... Read more

    Edited by Janusz Wasowski, Daniele Giordan, Piernicola Lollino ...
    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    The ongoing population growth is resulting in rapid urbanization, new infrastructure development and increasing demand for the Earth's natural resources (e.g., water, oil/gas, minerals). This, together with the current climate change and increasing impact of natural hazards, imply that the engineering geology profession is called upon to respond to new challenges. It is recognized that these ... Read more
