"Written by well-known and respected thought leaders in the field, Seismic Design and Analysis of Tanks is a comprehensive, global guide to the principles and applications of shell structure design and earthquake engineering with a focus on tank structures. This important text investigates the design, analysis, and performance of steel, reinforced concrete, and precast tanks that are aboveground, underground, or elevated. For a global overview of the latest analytical and practical solutions available, this guide includes the latest US codes and standards from ASCE, ACI, AWWA, and API, as well as Eurocodes and CEN. With detailed illustrations, photographs of real world damage to tanks induced by seismic events, and hundreds of step-by-step equations, practicing professionals and students in structural and geotechnical engineering now have a state-of-the-art guide to the seismic engineering performance of storage tanks that isn't bogged down with impenetrable math and theory"--
