Complete, practical coverage of the evaluation, analysis, and design and code
requirements of seismic isolation systems.

Based on the concept of reducing seismic demand rather than increasing the
earthquake resistance capacity of structures, seismic isolation is a
surprisingly simple approach to earthquake protection. However, proper
application of this technology within complex seismic design code requirements
is both complicated and difficult.

Design of Seismic Isolated Structures provides complete, up-to-date coverage of
seismic isolation, complete with a systematic development of concepts in theory
and practical application supplemented by numerical examples. This book/CD-ROM
set helps design professionals navigate and understand the ideas and procedures
involved in the analysis, design, and development of specifications for seismic
isolated structures. It also provides a framework for satisfying code
requirements while retaining the favorable cost-effective and damage control
aspects of this new technology. An indispensable resource for practicing and
aspiring engineers and architects, Design of Seismic Isolated Structures
includes:
* Isolation system components.
* Complete coverage of code provisions for seismic isolation.
* Mechanical characteristics and modeling of isolators.
* Buckling and stability of elastomeric isolators.
* Examples of seismic isolation designs.
* Specifications for the design, manufacture, and testing of isolation devices.
