Features: Structural seismic design is an important course in civil engineering. The new edition of the "Code for Seismic Design of Buildings" (GB50011-2001) was implemented starting from January 1, 2002. This textbook was written according to the new code and the training requirements for civil engineering majors specified in the new undergraduate major catalog of the Ministry of Education of China. The book is divided into eight chapters: Introduction—Earthquake Knowledge, Seismic Knowledge, Seismic Principles; Seismic Design of Sites and Foundations; Earthquake Response Analysis and Seismic Calculation; Seismic Design of Multistorey Masonry Structures; Seismic Design of High-rise Reinforced Concrete Structures; Seismic Design of Single-Story Industrial Buildings; Seismic Design of Base Isolation and Damping Systems. Each chapter also includes examples, exercises, and discussion questions.
