This book describes the mechanical response of butt, lap and doubler joints. The findings apply to shear connections in civil, aerospace, and other mechanical structures subjected to repeated loading. The findings are intended for engineers and NDE practitioners concerned with t…
Stress-strain behaviour of solids -- Principal stresses and strains -- Strain Energy -- Shear force and bending moment -- Bending and shear stresses -- Torsion -- Springs -- Deflection of beams -- Thin cylinders and shells -- Thick cylinders and shells -- Columns and struts -- A…
The papers and discussions deal with various types of shear walls, nuclear containment structures, high-rise buildings, box bridges, l-girders, columns and shells. They represent the most up-to-date knowledge of concrete shear in earthquake.
