Product Description
Japanese architecture is one of the most inspired manifestations of Japanese civilizations. Arguing that architectural styles are more than just symbols of the powers that created them, William Coaldrake explores the symbiotic relationship between architecture and authority throughout Japanese history. Exploring key structures and how they have been used as active conveyors of power, Coaldrake relates buildings to the political ambitions and religious beliefs of the major historical eras in Japan.

Hiroyuki Aoyama, "Design of Modern Highrise Reinforced Concrete Structures"
World Scientific Publishing Company | 2002 | ISBN: 1860942393 | 300 pages |
This book presents the results of a Japanese national research project carried out in 1988-1993, usually referred to as the New RC Project. Developing advanced reinforced concrete building structures with high strength and high quality materials under its auspices, the project aimed at promoting construction of highrise reinforced concrete buildings in highly seismic areas such as Japan. The project covered all the aspects of reinforced concrete structures, namely materials, structural elements, structural design, construction, and feasibility studies. In addition to presenting these results, the book includes two chapters giving an elementary explanation of modern analytical techniques, i.e. finite element analysis and earthquake response analysis.
