The death toll here was about 3000 and much of the city was in disaster after many buildings were not ready for the seismic activity of this magnitude. After this event, many codes were to be passed and buildings had to be inspected and passed for structural safety. These codes have been built on for many years as technology improves and so does our understanding of seismic activity. An example of a code that was passed in California was that after the Loma Prieta earthquake that struck the…

Fig. 5 shows the monotonic and cyclic stress-strain responses of selected specimens having all influential parameters considered in this study, such as the volumetric ratio of transverse steel reinforcement, number of CFRP layers, and aspect ratio. In this figure, the axial stress was calculated by dividing the axial load to the column cross-sectional area, and the corresponding axial strain was derived from the average readings of the four LVDTs divided by the central gauge length of each…

How do we understand the social world? This is one of the prominent questions in sociology that can be answered by sociological perspectives.
