Synopsis

Three keynote papers deal with the three major areas in the field: structure, in a paper on design developments in high-rise design and construction in Japan; geotechnical engineering, in a discussion of the effects of site conditions on ground motions; and seismology, in an account of the development of phased strong-motion time-histories for structures with multiple supports. Shorter papers fall into three broad areas: response analysis and design of structural components; the interaction of seismicity, mitigation, soil response, and soil structure; and seismic codes and structures. No index. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
