Photosensitive materials (x-ray films) are used to record the invisible x-ray image. It is required to reproduce all the characteristics of the invisible image in visible form .The films ability to do so depends on its sensitometric properties. Sensitometer: Measures films sensitivity to light; shows the range of densities on an image. Sensitometry:- The scientific study of the response of photosensitive material to different levels of exposure. How is it done? Producing a sensitometric strip

Site Planning and building form are very important from the point of view of seismic performance of the structure. Also it is very important to have proper compatibility of elements resisting seismic forces. Site Planning and selection of building forms is the first step in designing of any structure and the decisions taken are very crucial for the behaviour of those structures during any earthquake. Based on examples taken from various past earthquakes and theories this chapter gives guidelines
