This publication contains a comprehensive summary of the seismic detailing requirements contained in Chapter 21 of Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (318-05) and Commentary (318R-05), which is adopted by reference in the 2006 International Building Code. Numerous tables and figures explain and illustrate the provisions for buildings located in regions of moderate and high seismic risk including: flexural members of special moment frames, special moment frame members subjected to bending and axial load, joints of special moment frames and others.

This book compiles the first part of contributions to the China-Europe Conference on Geotechnical Engineering held 13.-16. August 2016 in Vienna, Austria. About 400 papers from 35 countries cover virtually all areas of geotechnical engineering and make this conference a truly international event. The contributions are grouped into thirteen special sessions and provide an overview of the geoengineering research and practice in China, Europe and the world: - Constitutive model - Micro-macro relationship - Numerical simulation - Laboratory testing - Geotechnical monitoring, instrumentation and field test - Foundation engineering - Underground construction - Environmental geotechnics - New geomaterials and ground improvement - Cold regions geotechnical engineering - Geohazards - risk assessment, mitigation and prevention - Unsaturated soils and energy geotechnics - Geotechnics in transportation, structural and hydraulic Engineering.
