Earthquake Engineering Handbook.
Written for practitioners, Earthquake Engineering Handbook is a comprehensive reference and resource that covers the spectrum of disciplines and topics needed to design for and mitigate earthquakes.
International expert authors include Jorma K. Arros, Horst Brandes, Wai-Fah Chen, Mustafa Erdik, Ronald Hamburger, Mahmoud Khater, Dennis Kuzak, David L. McCormick, Charles Scawthorn, Hope Seligson, Kim Shoaf, Paul Thenhaus, and many more.
Earthquake Engineering Handbook provides the essential elements of each subject, from the fundamentals, geoscience, and structural aspects to the social and economic impact of earthquakes. It also emphasizes professional applications and offers ready-to-use materials, including many formulas and tables that give immediate answers to real problems, and covers both the traditional and the new and innovative practices of earthquake engineering.
Offers an historical perspective, an overview of the framework for earthquake risk management, and an introduction to dynamics Covers geoscience topics, including geology, tectonics, liquefaction, and tsunamics, with emphasis on strong ground motion Addresses the range of structures, from building to bridges to the infrastructure of power, transportation and communications systems Stresses professional applications and ready-to-use materials Includes 1,000 illustrations .)
