Book A Nontechnical Explanation of the 1994 NEHRP Recommended Provisions

Download or read book A Nontechnical Explanation of the 1994 NEHRP Recommended Provisions written by Christopher Arnold and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1997-08 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for the reader concerned about seismic safety in buildings but without a professional background in design or construction. Provides a relatively nontechnical introduction to the building guidelines set forth in the 1994 Provisions by providing information on the nature of ground motion generated by an earthquake; how buildings are affected by ground motion; what techniques are used to design against earthquake forces; and how the Provisions translates this information into simple, uniform, and realistic criteria and requirements to be followed by designers and builders. Maps, charts and tables.

Book Strong Motion Instrumentation for Civil Engineering Structures

Download or read book Strong Motion Instrumentation for Civil Engineering Structures written by Mustafa Özder Erdik and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the existing strong motion instrumentation on civil engineering structures is installed and operated as federal, state, university, industry or private applications, in many cases operated as a closed system. This hampers co-operation and data exchange, hampering the acquisition of strong motion and structural data, sometimes even within a single country. There is a powerful need to inform engineers of existing strong motion data and to improve the accessibility of data worldwide. This book will play a role in fulfilling such a need by disseminating state-of-the art information, technology and developments in the strong motion instrumentation of civil engineering structures. The subject has direct implications for the earthquake response of structures, improvements in design for earthquake resistance, and hazard mitigation. Readership: Researchers in earthquake engineering, engineers designing earthquake resistant structures, and producers of strong motion recording equipment.

Book Improved Seismic Monitoring   Improved Decision Making

Download or read book Improved Seismic Monitoring Improved Decision Making written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-02-04 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improved Seismic Monitoringâ€"Improved Decision-Making, describes and assesses the varied economic benefits potentially derived from modernizing and expanding seismic monitoring activities in the United States. These benefits include more effective loss avoidance regulations and strategies, improved understanding of earthquake processes, better engineering design, more effective hazard mitigation strategies, and improved emergency response and recovery. The economic principles that must be applied to determine potential benefits are reviewed and the report concludes that although there is insufficient information available at present to fully quantify all the potential benefits, the annual dollar costs for improved seismic monitoring are in the tens of millions and the potential annual dollar benefits are in the hundreds of millions.
