Impressive engineering advances have occurred that can curb the impact of seismic events on residential properties, commercial edifices, architectural heritage, and infrastructure. Written by a university professor with decades of on-site experience, Construction of Earthquake-Resistant Concrete and Steel Structures offers up-to-date information and technical competence with the aim of supporting an understanding of fundamental concepts for concrete and steel structures, shell elements, and reinforcement detailing. The volume is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and early-career practicing professionals to also learn about construction issues and how to solve practical challenges while ensuring that building codes (ACI, AISC, ANSI, ASCE, RCSC, and many more) and design standards' requirements are upheld.
Presents readers with guidance on detailing techniques as well as theoretical and practical insights into the construction of concrete and steel structural elementsIncludes the author's own previously unpublished photosets from real-life projectsEach chapter concludes with supplementary questions that are a useful tool to test knowledge and/or reviseConcrete Fracture Mechanics

Only relatively recently has the research community embraced fracture mechanics as the conceptual framework to capture the cracking of concrete. As many factors affect crack development and propagation, the complex subject matter is still being thoroughly studied from different angles to ensure effective applicability in practical scenarios.
With its gradually progressive pedagogical approach, Concrete Fracture Mechanics: Failure Analysis, Modeling, and Applied Examples of Reinforcement offers in-depth insights into concrete failure analysis from a technical standpoint (i.e., calculations, structural prerequisites, step-by-step guidance on key manufacturing processes, revision of conventional concepts in the light of new findings) and takes a step forward in modeling methods for predicting the performance and behavior of concrete structures by using cutting-edge software tools for image processing and numerical simulation. This results in holistic considerations about reinforcement techniques, originating from the author’s own experience both at building sites and from academic research contributions, to maintain or optimize structural integrity.
This carefully thought-out, practical reference volume is intended to cater to students, researchers, as well as practicing professionals from a variety of closely interrelated civil engineering disciplines.
Includes case studies and worked-out examples.Collects data through image processing software and solves finite element modeling of reinforced and unreinforced concrete beams with Abaqus software.Each chapter concludes with summaries and exercises that are useful aids to test knowledge and/or revise.Is accompanied by an ancillary site with supplementary notes, exercises, and solutions to complement the book's contents and enhance insight.Seismic Retrofit of Buildings
