Handbook of seismic retrofit of buildings
Central Public Works Department (India) [CPWD] Indian Buildings Congress.
Handbook of seismic retrofit of buildings - New Delhi; Narosa Publishing House Pvt. Ltd., 2008. - 471 p. : illustrations (289 figures), tables (72) ; 25 cm.
Making buildings safe against earthquakes -- Introduction -- Introduction to seismic analysis and design -- Rapid visual screening, data collection and preliminary evaluation -- Condition assessment of buildings -- Repair and retrofit of non-engineered buildings -- Retrofit of masonry buildings -- Retrofit of historical and heritage structures -- Structural analysis for seismic retrofit -- Retrofit of reinforced concrete buildings -- Retrofit of steel buildings -- Mitigation of geotechnical seismic hazards -- Retrofit of foundations -- Retrofit using fibre reinforced polymer composites -- Base isolation and energy dissipation -- Quality assurance and control -- Retrofit case studies.
A technical reference on the seismic retrofit of buildings that compiles guidance for engineers, architects, construction professionals, decision-makers, and students. The handbook covers earthquake fundamentals, seismic analysis and design, vulnerability assessment, rapid visual screening, retrofit strategies for reinforced concrete, steel, masonry, heritage, and non-engineered buildings, geotechnical and foundation considerations, fibre reinforced polymer composites, base isolation, quality assurance, and practical case studies. It incorporates relevant Indian standards and references to international codes to support earthquake-resistant rehabilitation and strengthening of existing structures.
