Contains practical, easy-to-read explanations regarding the issues and problems encountered in designing for these natural disasters. This edition includes important code updates from the 1994 Uniform Building Code as well as more detailed information on engineering computations and lateral force construction. Increased attention is paid to the relationship between building design and seismic response. Features a discussion of the latest CAD products for lateral design work. Serves as a major reference for anyone preparing for seismic and wind design test sections of State Board Examinations (for licensing purposes).

Building Structures: Study Guide

John Wiley&Sons

This book is full of examples of what designers can do once they learn the basics. This book presents an overview of the structural design process for designers with limited backgrounds in engineering analysis and mathematics. Included is information on structural systems and materials, the development of the general form and basic elements of a specific system, and construction plans and details. Included are examples of eleven different structural systems, each with an explanation of the design and a sample set of construction plans and details.

Simplified Design of Building Structures

Krieger Pub. Co

Provides both a general treatment of fundamental concepts and issues and illustrations of the design of typical earthquake-resistant structures based on the requirements of the Uniform Building Code. Emphasizes the practical concerns of the building designer as well as basic grounding in the fundamentals. Emphasizes the significance of various factors in design, such as choice of materials, type of structure, details of construction, building planning, and spatial arrangement.
