Comprehensive Practice in Seismic Design Concepts, Methods, and Standards
Seismic Design Solved Problems
Seventh Edition
Seismic Design Solved Problems provides comprehensive practice for both the California Civil Seismic Principles exam and the NCEES Structural Engineering (SE) exam. 360 multiple-choice problems cover all exam subjects, including basic seismology, applications of codes and standards, and design details. The variety of problem types, topics, and complexities is representative of the actual exam. Problems in both qualitative and quantitative formats are included, and solutions use the same codes and standards that will be needed on exam day. Step-by-step procedures are used to solve numerical problems; and, detailed explanations are given for qualitative problems.
With Seismic Design Solved Problems, you will
