Описание: Many important advances in designing earthquake- resistant structures have occurred over the last several years. Civil engineers need an authoritative source of information that reflects the issues that are unique to the field. Comprising chapters selected from the latest research, the textbook is focused on concise and valuable text that is explained with theoretical, practical, and computational aspects. The book supplies the latest concepts, design methodologies, and analytical techniques for mitigating the effects of seismic damage to structures. It discusses the fundamentals of earthquake engineering, explaining the causes of earthquakes and faulting, measurement of earthquakes, and characterisation of seismicity. Subsequent chapters discuss the various types of earthquake damage to structures including recent improvements in earthquake performance, seismic design of buildings and bridges considering various types of construction materials, and performance based seismic design and evaluation of building structures. The book introduces probabilistic approaches to performance-based methodologies as well as an application example of performance-based design. It offers practical tools that are gathered together in a convenient reference for immediate implementation. It is an ideal resource for civil and structural engineers specialising in earthquake engineering.

Описание: This book provides readers with the basic coping strategies of surviving within the political arena of their schools. If educators want to survive, they should read this book and find practical strategies from those who have collectively worked within the school setting for over 75 years--voices of experience to share helpful coping skills. When educators are bogged down with gossip, ostracism, and upsetting events, they will not be able to work effectively with their students and coworkers. These dynamics are illustrated throughout the book through the use of fictitious educators who portray staff dealing with situations to which readers can relate. In each chapter, readers will find an action plan designed to provide tools that educators should utilize in surviving internal politics.

Описание: Design, rehabilitate and maintain modern highway bridge from steel and reinforced concrete design, to highway layout and basic geometrics, to geotechnical engineering and hydraulics are all explained in this book. Written with unusual clarity and packed with timely design examples and case studies plus eye opening sidebars and graphics, the book shows bridge structures, function, types and applications; design superstructures and substructures for maximum maintainability; design highway components. The book is an easy approach pavement and serves as a slab, structures geometrics and elevations, roadways alignments and more; kick off the project-from funding to site surveying and coring; manage the design process-contract documents, reports, plans client interactions and many more; manage the bridge itself- from creating a structure inventory to extending GIS and CADD functionality. From initial concept all the way to final contract document preparation, the book bridge maintenance, safety and management presents a clear and detailed roadmap to the entire bridge process. Placing special emphasis on rehabilitation design and maintenance techniques, the book is filled with important design procedures and illustrations.
