Earthquake engineering Application to Design Book by Charles K. Erdey 1

Earthquake engineering Application to Design Book by Charles K. Erdey

Earthquake Engineering 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 […]

STRUCTURAL DAMPING Applications in Seismic Response Modification by Liang, Zach 3

STRUCTURAL DAMPING Applications in Seismic Response Modification by Liang, Zach

The major goal of earthquake engineering is to limit seismic-induced structural damages at reasonable cost. To achieve this goal, one of the most effective approaches to reduce structural response is to utilize supplemental dampers, provided such a damping system is properly designed. In this sense, understanding structural damping is critically important for successful seismic design.
