The book is cast in a framework with three key components, namely (i) earthquake causes with effects are traced from source to society, (ii) structural response under earthquake motion is characterized primarily by varying and interrelated values of stiffness, strength and ductility, and (iii) all structural response characteristics are presented on the material, section, member, sub-assemblage and structural system levels.
The comprehensive project is used to provide an integration framework for the various components of the earthquake source, path site, and structural features that affect the actions and deformations required for seismic design.
The three teaching and learning components are (i) the book, (ii) the slide sets and (iii) the solved examples are inseparable. Their use in unison has been tested and proven in a U.S. top tier university teaching environment for a number of years.
