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","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45787612381231,"sku":"9781138116245","price":105.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/2855\/6847\/files\/imageloader_0ff89e1d-4a4c-4047-85b6-52bc11e24680.jpg?v=1786149639","url":"https:\/\/tssbooks.com\/products\/earthquake-engineering-for-structural-design","provider":"tssbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
