BASICS OF STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS AND ASEISMIC DESIGN
This book covers all the four major areas of Earthquake Engineering such as Structural Dynamics, Seismology, Seismic Analysis, Aseismic Design, including design philosophy, capacity design and codal provisions. It also provides detailed information on liquefaction of soil and effects of soil properties on response spectra. Each chapter is well-designed and well-balanced with lucid illustrations and diagrams. Numerous solved examples have been included for better comprehension of the concepts. Exercises with answers have been provided at the end of each chapter to develop problem-solving skills of the students. This comprehensive survey of the effects of earthquakes on dynamics of structures ...
LIMIT STATE DESIGN IN STRUCTURAL STEEL
Primarily designed for the students of civil/structural engineering at all levels of studies—undergraduate, postgraduate and diploma—as well as for professionals in this field, the third edition of this book covers the fundamental concepts of steel design in the perspective of limit state design as per IS 800:2007, with special focus on cost-effective design of industrial structures, foot bridges, portal frames, and pre-engineered buildings. Beam to column connections, typically adopted in SMRF are discussed with AISC specifications in this edition. Two appendices elaborate—(i) geometrical properties of rolled steel sections often required as per the revised clause of IS 800:2007 which...
Recent Developments In Civil Engineering
A book on Recent Developments in Civil engineering would likely focus on the latest advancements and innovations in the field of Civil Engineering. The book would cover a wide range of topics related to Civil engineering, such as sustainable infrastructure design, construction materials and construction techniques, transportation systems and infrastructure, geotechnical engineering, water resources and management, environmental engineering and sustainability of structures and its design.
TEXTBOOK OF GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING, Fourth Edition
This well-established book, now in its Fourth Edition, includes the positive feedback and constructive suggestions received from academics and students alike on the third edition. While retaining the major contents of the earlier editions, this edition incorporates a new chapter on the significance and impacts of Climate Change on the practice of Geotechnical Engineering. Some of these impacts are direct, e.g., desertification, flooding. Others are indirect, e.g., population migration, agriculture. Geotechnical engineers have to be prepared with plans to mitigate the impacts of these aspects. Case histories have been included to illustrate how advance preparedness may greatly help in providi...
Building Structures
This is a one-stop book for knowing everything important about building structures. Self-contained and with no prerequisites needed, it is suitable for both general readers and building professionals. follow the history of structural understanding; grasp the concepts of structural behaviour via step-by-step explanations; apply these concepts to a simple building; see how these concepts apply to real buildings, from Durham Cathedral to the Bank of China; use these concepts to define the design process; see how these concepts inform design choices; understand how engineering and architecture have diverged, and what effect this had; learn to do simple but relevant numerical calculations for actual structures; understand when dynamics are important; follow the development of progressive collapse prevention; enter the world of modern structural theory; see how computers can be used for structural analysis; learn how to organise and design a successful project. With more than 500 pages and over 1100 user-friendly diagrams, this book is a must for anyone who would like to understand the fascinating world of structures.
Sustainability Trends and Challenges in Civil Engineering
This book presents the select proceedings of the International Conference on Civil Engineering Trends and Challenges for Sustainability (CTCS 2020). The chapters discuss emerging and latest research and advances in sustainability in different areas of civil engineering, which aim to provide solutions to sustainable development. The contents are broadly divided into the following categories: construction technology and building materials, structural engineering, transportation and geotechnical engineering, environmental and water resources engineering, and RS-GIS applications. This book will be of potential interest to beginners, researchers, and professionals working in the area of sustainable civil engineering and related fields.
ANALYSIS AND DESIGN PRACTICE OF STEEL STRUCTURES
This book is a comprehensive presentation of the fundamental aspects of analysis and design of steel structures. It is primarily meant for the undergraduate students of civil engineering and postgraduate students of structural engineering. It will also be immensely useful for structural engineers engaged in design, consultancy and construction involving steel structures. The important theoretical and practical concepts which need to be assimilated prior to undertaking analysis and design—general principles and practices, functional aspects of structures, basic design concepts, alternative arrangements of equipment and service, clarity of structural behaviour, and calculations of loadings o...
Fundamentals of Reinforced Concrete
This book on Reinforced Concrete has been comprehensively revised with a view to make it more suitable for the updated syllabus of various Technical Institutes and Engineering Colleges of different Universities.
FUNDAMENTALS OF SOIL DYNAMICS AND EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING
The majority of the cases of earthquake damage to buildings, bridges, and other retaining structures are influenced by soil and ground conditions. To address such phenomena, Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering is the appropriate discipline. This textbook presents the fundamentals of Soil Dynamics, combined with the basic principles, theories and methods of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering. It is designed for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students in Civil Engineering & Architecture. The text will also be useful to young faculty members, practising engineers and consultants. Besides, teachers will find it a useful reference for preparation of lectures and for designing short c...
