Design for Lateral Forces, Hardback Book

Design for Lateral Forces Hardback

Hardback

Description

The book deals with design for effects of lateral forces on buildings, primarily wind and earthquakes and also includes effects of soil pressure, thermal change and structural actions such as thrust of arches.

Basic definitions are provided and also fully explained basic concepts, proceeding to their application to ordinary problems of design encountered in practice.

Design solutions for most common building structural components and systems are displayed.

The math level used in the examples is appropriate for architecture students and others with limited preparation in engineering.

Work presented conforms to the current codes and industry standards and to design practices.

The book also provides code criteria and data for computations, and is extensively illustrated.
