This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: fib Bulletin 73: Tall Buildings is the result of a collaboration between the fib and MPA The Concrete Centre (UK). Task Group 1.6 High-rise buildings, within fib Commission 1: Structures, was drawn together with a mandate to write about the experience and know-how pertinent to the development, design and construction of tall concrete buildings. The group’s findings are presented in this state-of the-art report. Tall buildings are a unique challenge to engineers, even to those with extensive experience of low-rise structures. The bulletin explains the critical interfaces with other professionals, for example architects, building services engineers, façade and lift specialists, geotechnical engineers and wind specialists, highlighting how these parties interact with engineers and can influence and guide the development of the structural solution. The key factors in choosing the most appropriate structural system are discussed. The bulletin covers the criteria used to select the most economical structural elements including the foundations, the vertical elements and the floor slabs. Examples of common construction methods are presented and their effects on the structural engineering design are discussed. Tall buildings can undergo significant deformation during their construction and service life. These movements need to be understood by the designer and potentially compensated for in the design and during construction. One of the main particularities of the design of tall buildings is the dominance of the lateral loading from wind and seismic actions. The bulletin provides a discussion of these important topics and sets out the current approach taken by experienced engineers. Designers of tall buildings also need to understand the dynamic behaviour of the structure and confine the motion of the building to within acceptable limits. Approaches to damping and dynamic performance are discussed and guidance provided on the appropriate occupant comfort limits.

Book Approximate Analysis of Shear Wall frame Structures

Download or read book Approximate Analysis of Shear Wall frame Structures written by Saurendranath Guhamajumdar and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computer analysis has been developed to predict the behavior of tall buildings subjected to lateral loads. The buildings considered are composed of shear walls and frames. Each shear wall-frame unit undergoes equal lateral deformations and the structure as a whole does not deform torsionally. The analysis is performed on a subassemblage consisting of a lumped shear wall system and a simple substitute frame. The load-deflection relationship for the structure is determined up to the ultimate load. The formation of plastic hinges in the substitute frame has been considered as well as the inelastic action of the wall. In addition, the secondary moments produced by the axial forces in the columns acting through the sway displacements of the structure are considered. The lumping procedure used to form the subassemblage is discussed and the analysis of the subassemblage in both the elastic and inelastic range, including the P-[delta] effect, is presented. The results of the analysis are compared with those obtained by other methods. The behavior of a shear wall-frame structure is discussed and illustrated by an example.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 28 (thesis year 1 983) a total of 10,661 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 197 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 28 reports theses submitted in-1983, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Encyclopedia of Earthquake Engineering

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Earthquake Engineering written by Michael Beer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-30 with total page 3953 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Earthquake Engineering is designed to be the authoritative and comprehensive reference covering all major aspects of the science of earthquake engineering, specifically focusing on the interaction between earthquakes and infrastructure. The encyclopedia comprises approximately 300 contributions. Since earthquake engineering deals with the interaction between earthquake disturbances and the built infrastructure, the emphasis is on basic design processes important to both non-specialists and engineers so that readers become suitably well informed without needing to deal with the details of specialist understanding. The encyclopedia’s content provides technically-inclined and informed readers about the ways in which earthquakes can affect our infrastructure and how engineers would go about designing against, mitigating and remediating these effects. The coverage ranges from buildings, foundations, underground construction, lifelines and bridges, roads, embankments and slopes. The encyclopedia also aims to provide cross-disciplinary and cross-domain information to domain-experts. This is the first single reference encyclopedia of this breadth and scope that brings together the science, engineering and technological aspects of earthquakes and structures.

Book Structural Cost Comparison of Low Rise Building Having Moment Resisting Frames and Moment Resisting Frames With Shear Wall for Different Seismic Zones

Download or read book Structural Cost Comparison of Low Rise Building Having Moment Resisting Frames and Moment Resisting Frames With Shear Wall for Different Seismic Zones written by Mukesh Gordhandas Bagani and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Bhuj earthquake 2001, there were collapses of many low rise buildings. After a very severe seismic shaking, it may be far cheaper to repair, or even rebuild the damaged structure, than to build a no damaged structure in the first place. With the help of shear walls the structure can be made which will not collapse in earthquake. It is general perception in minds of people that shear walls are economical for high rise buildings. Therefore it is necessary to find out cost efficiency of low rise buildings with shear walls.
