Response Spectrum Method in Seismic Analysis and Design of Structures





Foreword

This book devoted to the Response Spectrum Method contains concise sections on a number of the major topics associated with the application of spectrum tech- niques in analysis and design. Although the theory of spectra has been understood for some extended period of time, it was only in the past twenty years that the approach was adopted in a major way by the profession for use in engineering practice. This development came about as a result of three major factors, namely that the theory and background of spectra was more fully understood, that the theory was relatively simple to understand and use, and because there was a need for such a simple approach by the building codes and by the advanced analysis techniques needed in the design of nuclear power plants and lifeline systems.
