Design of Reinforced Concrete
How to Apply the Concepts of
Reinforced Concrete Updated to ACI 318-08
With its accessible approach and streamlined coverage of theory,
engineers will quickly learn how to apply the concepts in the eighth
edition. The contents have been updated to conform to the 2008
building code of the American Concrete Institute (ACI 318-08). New
spreadsheets are included that arm the reader with tools to analyze
and design reinforced concrete elements and quickly compare
alternative solutions. A new chapter on seismic design explores the
issues related to the design of reinforced concrete structures to
resist earthquakes. The new materials section also provides
engineers with details and examples on how to design shear walls for
combined axial load and bending moment |

Earthquake Engineering:
Application To Design
A Practical Guide to Learning How to Design Code Compliant,
Earthquake Resistant Structures
Demonstrates how to design structural members and joints for seismic
resistance. The text guides readers through dozens of structural
designs, documenting how to perform each step, make the necessary
calculations, and adhere to relevant design codes. Most other texts
on seismic design focus on theory and the construction of idealized
structures; this text is a radical departure, presenting actual
tested design methodologies that protect structures from the
devastation of earthquakes. All the design methods presented by the
author comply with the current U.S. building codes. References to
these codes are provided throughout the text, helping readers
understand how they are integrated into an overall structural
design. |

Fundamentals of Seismic Loading On
Structures
A Practical Guide to the Basic
Essentials of Earthquake Engineering
Fundamentals of Seismic Loading on Structures provides a
practical guide to the basic essentials of earthquake engineering
with a focus on seismic loading and structural design. Benefiting
from the author’s extensive career in structural and earthquake
engineering, dynamic analysis and lecturing, it is written from an
industry perspective at a level suitable for graduate students.
Fundamentals of Seismic Loading on Structures is organized into four
major sections: introduction to earthquakes and related engineering
problems, analysis, seismic loading, and design concepts. |

Seismic Design Handbook,
2nd Edition
This new second edition of the handbook contains
up-to-date information on planning, analysis, and design of
earthquake-resistant building structures. Its intention is to
provide engineers, architects, developers, and students of
structural engineering and architecture with authoritative, yet
practical, design information. It bridges the gap between advances
in the theories and concepts of seismic design and their
implementation in practice. This handbook
contains a CD-ROM with applicable building code
references and recommended practices. |
