  • Earthquake Resistant Buildings

    Dynamic Analyses, Numerical Computations, Codified Methods, Case Studies and Examples

    by M.Y.H. Bangash ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This concise work provides a general introduction to the design of buildings which must be resistant to the effect of earthquakes. A major part of this design involves the building structure which has a primary role in preventing serious damage or structural collapse. Much of the material presented in this book examines building structures. Due to the recent discovery of vertical components, it ... Read more

  • 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

  • Engineering Geology and Geological Engineering for Sustainable Use of the Earth’s Resources, Urbanization and Infrastructure Protection from Geohazards

    Proceedings of the 1st GeoMEast International Congress and Exhibition, Egypt 2017 on Sustainable Civil Infrastructures

    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

  • Advances in Reinforced Soil Structures

    Proceedings of the 1st GeoMEast International Congress and Exhibition, Egypt 2017 on Sustainable Civil Infrastructures

    Edited by Sanjay Kumar Shukla, Erol Guler ...
    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    Soil reinforcement is a very useful technique to construct several cost-effective soil structures in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner. The most commonly used reinforcement materials are galvanised steel strips, geosynthetics in the form of woven geotextiles, geogrids and geocomposites, and fibres from natural and waste products. In recent years, there have been advances in the ... Read more

  • Seismic Behaviour and Design of Irregular and Complex Civil Structures

    Edited by Oren Lavan, Mario De Stefano ...
    Series Book 24 - Geotechnical, Geological and Earthquake Engineering
    Structural irregularities are one of the most frequent causes of severe damages in buildings, as evidenced by the numerous earthquakes in recent years. This issue is of particular importance, since real structures are almost all irregular. Furthermore, structural irregularities depend on several factors often very difficult to predict. This book is an essential tool for understanding the problem ... Read more
