    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Covers principles and application rules for the seismic design of the structural aspects of integrated facilities which are composed of pipeline systems and of storage tanks of different types and destinations, as well as independent items, e.g. single water towers that serve a specific purpose or groups of silos enclosing granular materials, etc.
