Seismic Design for Architects by Andrew Charleson
Shows how structural requirements for seismic resistance can become an integral part of the design process. Emphasizing design and discussing key concepts with accompanying visual material, this book offers architects the background knowledge and practical tools needed to deal with aspects of seismic design at various stages of the design process.Andrew Charleson has visited, photographed and analysed almost all of the case-study buildings. He is an Associate Professor at the School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. Bringing over forty years structural engineering experience to the topic, he has also authored the book Seismic Design for Architects: Outwitting the Quake and published many papers, not only related to the subject of this book, but also to his other areas of research interest, earthquake engineering and earthquake architecture.
