In order to reduce the seismic risk facing many densely populated regions
worldwide, including Canada and the United States, modern earthquake
engineering should be more widely applied. But current literature on
earthquake engineering may be difficult to grasp for structural engineers who
are untrained in seismic design. In addition no single resource addressed
seismic design practices in both Canada and the United States until now.
Elements of Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics was written to fill
the gap. It presents the key elements of earthquake engineering and structural
dynamics at an introductory level and gives readers the basic knowledge they
need to apply the seismic provisions contained in Canadian and American
building codes. But the scope of this book is not limited to structural
analysis and design; it also discusses the basics of other relevant topics
such as seismology, seismic risk analysis and geotechnical engineering, to
help structural engineers work efficiently with other specialists on
earthquake-resistant construction projects. Chapters end with a set of
problems giving readers an insight into practical aspects of the subject.
TARGET AUDIENCE This book is intended for senior undergraduate and graduate
structural engineering students, and university educators as well as
practicing engineers who will all find it a valuable resource.
