Earthquake resistant design manual
This is a bilingual manual in English and Bengali, and is intended for engineers, architects, students and other building professionals. The authors aim to present the subject of earthquake resistant design including earthquake; behaviour of low-rise buildings subjected to lateral loads; seismic design loads; detailing requirements; quality control and quality assurance; repair, restoration and strengthening of buildings. Since a large number of buildings which have already been built in Bangladesh have design/construction deficiencies which make them highly vulnerable, a chapter on retrofitting has been included.
