Structural analysis and design of earthquake-resistant buildings

The book presents methods of analysis and design of earthquake-resistant buildings according to the criterion of non-destruction and with the use of nonlinear dynamic methods. It provides verification of design models of multistory reinforced concrete and steel buildings. In particular, structural schemes of buildings with full frame, frame-braced and cross-wall load-bearing systems are considered. The issues of modeling seismic effects, taking into account the interaction of the structure with the base soils, as well as the reliability and probabilistic assessment of earthquake resistance of buildings are discussed. The calculations are performed using solid and structural finite elements as well as parallel computations in cluster mode.

The considered verified methods and results of calculations can be applied by designers and researchers in design, scientific and technical support of design and construction in seismic areas, as well as in updating of normative documents in the field of earthquake-resistant construction.

The book may serve as a manual for undergraduate and graduate students of universities of civil engineering.
