- IITK-BMTPC Earthquake Tips - Learning Seismic Design and Construction: While the subject of earthquake
engineering has its own sophistication and a lot of new research is being conducted in this very important
subject, it is also important to widely disseminate the basic concepts of earthquake resistant constructions
through simple language. With this objective, the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK) and the Building
Materials and Technology Promotion Council (BMTPC), a constituent of the Ministry of Urban Development &
Poverty Alleviation, Government of India, launched the IITK-BMTPC Series on Earthquake Tips in early 2002.
Professor C. V. R. Murty was requested to take up the daunting task of expressing difficult concepts in very
simple language, which he has very ably done.
- IAEE Guidelines for Earthquake Resistant Non-Engineered Construction (English Edition by NICEE): The
'Guidelines for Earthquake Resistant Non-Engineered Construction' was published by the International
Association for Earthquake Engineering (IAEE) in 1986 with the objective of improving the seismic safety of
non-engineered housing constructions. Such structures are usually built by common man across many
developing countries. It offers basic concepts and construction techniques to improve the earthquake
resistance of these commonly built houses. The National Information Center of Earthquake Engineering of
India (NICEE) is pleased to offer the second reprint of the English version of these Guidelines.
