This issue is of particular importance, since real structures are almost all irregular. Furthermore, structural irregularities depend on several factors often very difficult to predict. This book is an essential tool for understanding the problem of structural irregularities and provides the most up-to-date review on this topic, covering the aspects of ground rotations, analysis, design, control and monitoring of irregular structures. It includes 24 contributions from authors of 13 countries, giving a complete and international view of the problem Analysis Engineering Mechanical engineering Civil engineering Building construction Geotechnical Engineering & Applied Earth Sciences Building Repair and Maintenance Structural Mechanics aardwetenschappen earth sciences mechanica mechanics gebouwen buildings onderhoud maintenance civiele techniek Engineering (General) Techniek (algemeen) Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Subject Earthquake engineering -- Congresses Structural engineering -- Congresses TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING -- Civil -- General.
