Zusammenfassung

This connects basic earthquake engineering principles with practical structural design. It includes recent developments of RC structures and nonlinear analysis, structural intervention prior or post-earthquake, and now introduces seismic isolation and passive devices. Complies with European Codes for the seismic design of RC buildings.
