They often overlook the importance of seismological knowledge to earthquake-proofing of design. It is not enough only to understand the anatomy of the structure, you must also appreciate the nature of the likely earthquake.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSeismic design, as detailed in this book, is the bringing together of Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Seismology. It focuses on the seismological aspects of design - analyzing various types of earthquake and how they affect structures differently. Understanding the distinction between these earthquake types and their different impacts on buildings can make the difference between whether a building stands or falls, or at least to how much it costs to repair.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCovering the basis and basics of the major international codes, this is the essential guide for professionals working on structures in earthquake zones around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victor Gioncu, Federico Mazzolani\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415465338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415465335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 570\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.25d","brand":"Victor Gioncu","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44149175910655,"sku":"9780415465335","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0048d61a-6233-4b01-97d3-ad68c4188f5c.jpg?v=1688455238","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/earthquake-engineering-for-structural-design-victor-gioncu-9780415465335","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
