This book is intended to serve as a textbook for engineering
courses on earthquake resistant design. The book covers important
attributes for seismic design such as material properties, damping,
ductility, stiffness and strength. The subject coverage commences
with simple concepts and proceeds right up to nonlinear analysis
and push-over method for checking building adequacy. The book also
provides an insight into the design of base isolators highlighting
their merits and demerits. Apart from the theoretical approach to
design of multi-storey buildings, the book highlights the care
required in practical design and construction of various building
components. It covers modal analysis in depth including the
important missing mass method of analysis and tension shift in
shear walls and beams. These have important bearing on
reinforcement detailing. Detailed design and construction features
are covered for earthquake resistant design of reinforced concrete
as well as confined and reinforced masonry structures. The book
also provides the methodology for assessment of seismic forces on
basement walls and pile foundations. It provides a practical
approach to design and detailing of soft storeys, short columns,
vulnerable staircases and many other components. The book bridges
the gap between design and construction. Plenty of worked
illustrative examples are provided to aid learning. This book will
be of value to upper undergraduate and graduate students taking
courses on seismic design of structures.
