About the Book

Featuring research for internationally acknowledge authorities, this text contains the proceedings of the second international conference to be held on earthquake resistant engineering structures. Topics relevant to the analysis and design of structures resistant to earthquake damage, including engineering seismology, applicable numerical methods, principles of design, and soil-structure interaction are discussed, while case studies are also presented.
