Description
New Age International (P) Ltd Publishers Seismic Analysis And Earthquake-Resistant Design Of Structures 1St Edition 2018 by S K Bhattacharjee
The book presents the basic concepts of ground motion and structural dynamics, seismic analysis and I.S. code-based seismic design methods for multi-storied buildings, bridges, masonry structures, tall chimneys, overhead tanks and underground facilities. The text contains separate chapters on retrofitting, repair, strengthening and rehabilitation of structures damaged by earthquakes. Separate chapters are also there on related topics on application of energy-dissipating devices, probabilistic evaluation of seismic vulnerability and case reports of major earthquakes.
The book is expected to be useful as a textbook for undergraduate final year students of civil engineering of all Indian universities, postgraduate students specializing in the subject and would also serve as a useful reference book to practicing engineers and architects.
