About this document

Seismic Design for Buried Structures by ClaudioDuarte is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document presents guidelines for seismic design of buried structures in Hong Kong. It outlines a methodology involving: 1) developing a ground conditions model, 2) estimating ground distortion from site response analysis, 3) applying seismic loads to structural elements, and 4) analyzing the overall structure response. Three case studies applying these guidelines to different buried structure types (piled foundations, cut-and-cover tunnels, deep basements) in Hong Kong are also presented to demonstrate
