This article describes the damage of housing, roads, bridges and other engineering structures and landslides mudslides, dammed lakes and other geological hazards triggered by earthquakes; Outlines the effort of the rescue operation, including personnel search and rescue, road rehabilitation, caring for the wounded, people placement and soon; Summarizes the reconstruction strategies and policies, including with Chinese characteristics” counterpart support” reconstruction mode which means a province to help a county.
Damage of hydropower engineering Wenchuan earthquake hit 860 large and medium hydropower projects although some damage, but not a break, did not constitute a threat to downstream areas.
Recovery to normal condition of affected region The initial stage after the earthquake, heavy disaster areas of social production and living a virtual standstill, significant damage to social order, to step up to the normal promotion of social transformation, take some measures: the civil service injuries Beichuan country, Mianzhu country and others quickly sending cadres sent from the field work, pay close attention to restoration of the county and township government functions.

The method used in this paper may open a new approach for simulating and analyzing the mechanical performance in engineering practice and the result we got may provide some theory basis for the application of Multi-ribbed slab frame structure.
It is difficult to accurate analysis on the stress status of the composite wall and the interaction between the embedded objects and the multi-ribbed slab frame in elastic stage as well as other effects of various factors in engineering practice[3, 4].
The results suggest that not only the method used in this paper may open a new approach for simulating and analyzing the mechanical performance in engineering practice but also the result were got to provide some theory basis for the application of Multi-Ribbed Slab Structure.

The influence of stochastic imperfection field on the bearing capacity of hyperbolic cooling towers Hai Zhao1, a, Yazhou Xu1,b and Guoliang Bai1,c 1 Civil Engineering Institute, Xi’an University of Architecture and Technology, 13 Yanta Road, Xi’an 710055, China azhaohai1982@126.com, byazhou.xu@gmail.com, cguoliangbai@126.com, Keywords: imperfections; stochastic field; buckling mode; vibration mode; orthonormal basis; orthonormal expansion; hyperbolic cooling tower.
In the end, the article by the stability analysis example shows that this method can use less random variables effectively describing the original stochastic imperfection field, and efficiently search for the most unfavorable initial imperfection distribution form in order to ensure the imperfection sensitivity structures have a higher reliability, so it can be applied to large-scale engineering structure stochastic imperfection analysis.
Introduction As is known to all, the influence of the geometrical imperfections can significantly reduce the buckling capacity of engineering structures（Arbocz and Starnes [1], Khamlichi et al. [2], Papadopoulos and Papadrakakis [3]）, so it will cause a great security risk in the operation of the cooling tower.

The inversion profile gives the underground resistivity distribution for the power engineers to select proper ground site location.
Introduction Electromagnetic (EM) methods have been successfully and widely used in petroleum, underwater water as well as civil engineering exploration in recent years due to its low cost and high working efficiency[1].
After data processing and inversion, the resistivity distribution is achieved to supply a reference model for the engineers in safety building the ground site for power plant.
