Cape Town is building a brand-new stadium for the 2010 FIFA World Cup Games, but it is the last World Cup project to get started. Australian project manager Andy Fanton is struggling to keep it on schedule and make up for lost time. Green Point Stadium has to be finished in 12 months to be ready for its first practice games. The construction team will have a tough time getting there, with a largely inexperienced group of workers and a severe shortage of cranes. The stadium roof is the biggest challenge of all as it is made up of high-tension cables; if they are not perfectly tensioned, the roof will collapse.

API Standard 2000 6th Ed. Nov. 2009 - Venting Atmospheric and Low-Pressure Storage Tanks - ISO 28300
Author: American Petroleum Institute | Size: 1.5 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Year: 01-Nov-2009 | pages: 76
Covers the normal and emergency vapour venting requirements for aboveground liquid petroleum or petroleum products storage tanks and aboveground and underground refrigerated storage tanks, designed for operation at pressures from full vacuum through 103,4 kPa (ga) [15 psig]. Discussed in this International Standard are the causes of overpressure and vacuum; determination of venting requirements; means of venting; selection, and installation of venting devices; and testing and marking of relief devices.
Intended for tanks containing petroleum and petroleum products but it can also be applied to tanks containing other liquids; however, it is necessary to use sound engineering analysis and judgment whenever this International Standard is applied to other liquids.
This International Standard does not apply to external floating-roof tanks.
This edition of API Std 2000 is the identical national adoption of ISO 28300:2008, Petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries-Venting of atmospheric and low-pressure storage tanks.

Proceedings of the international symposium on slope stability engineering
- IS- Shikoku’99 / Matsuyama / Shikoku / Japan / 8- 11 November 1999.
Edited by
Norio Yagi - Ehime Universio, Japan
Takuo Yamagami & Jing-Cai Jiang - University of Tokushima, Japan
Volume 1
It is of a great concern to civil, geotechnical, and environmental engineers to overcome different problems caused by natural disasters, human errors and geo-environmental problems, whch are
related directly or indirectly to the soil and rock properties. Although significant progress in the field of geotechmcal engineering has been made in past few decades, there are still a number of problems that arise in geotechnical analyses, designs, and specifications to prevent the possible damages due to unexpected disasters like landslides, debris flows, earthquakes, etc. So, figuring out these problems and tackling them very professionally are the main challenges at present-day world of geotechnical engineering.
With this objective, the International Symposium on Slope Stability Engineering: Geotechnical and Geo-environmental Aspects - IS-Shikoku’99 was held at Matsuyama, Ehime from November 8 to 1 I , 1999. The symposium was sponsored by the Japanese Geotechnical Society on its 50th anniversary under the auspices of the technical committee on landslides (TC-11) of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE) and the Japan Landslide Society. The aim of the symposium was to bring different professionals from different disciplines and backgrounds together into a place to broaden the knowledge and understand the problems all over the world from various perspectives.
This symposium covers a broad range of topics such as site investigation, seismic effect, soil strength parameters, damage assessment, remediation techniques, land development, waste disposal, landslide hazard, simulation, analysis, etc on slope stability engineering. The main themes of the symposium are as follows:
1. Site investigation;
2. Stability analysis of soil and rock slopes;
3. Effects of seismicity and rainfall;
4. Design strength parameters of natural slopes;
5. Effect of land development;
6. Slope stability of waste materials;
7. Stability of landfills;
8. Stabilization and remedial works;
9. Reinforced steep slopes;
10. Probabilistic slope stability;
11. Landslide inventory and landslide hazard zonation;
12. Simulation and analysis of debris flow.

Modelling and predicting how porous media deform when subjected to external actions and physical phenomena, including the effect of saturating fluids, are of importance to the understanding of geophysics and civil engineering (including soil and rock mechanics and petroleum engineering), as well as in newer areas such as biomechanics and agricultural engineering.
Starting from the highly successful First Edition, Coussy has completely re-written Mechanics of Porous Continua/Poromechanics to include:
New material for:
Partially saturated porous media
Reactive porous media
Macroscopic electrical effects
A single theoretical framework to the subject to explain the interdisciplinary nature of the subject
Exercises at the end of each chapter to aid understanding
The unified approach taken by this text makes it a valuable addition to the bookshelf of every PhD student and researcher in civil engineering, petroleum engineering, geophysics, biomechanics and material science.
From the Back Cover
Modelling and predicting the mechanical behaviour of fluid-infiltrated porous media is vital to geophysics, petroleum and civil engineering, as well as to newer disciplines such as biomechanics and agricultural engineering. This book, based on the successful Mechanics of Porous Continua, has been revised and updated to strengthen the basics of this emerging field of 'Poromechanics'. Serving as a self-contained guide, Poromechanics provides a unified approach to the fundamental concepts of continuum poromechanics and to the coupling of the deformation of porous continua with various physical processes.
This book:
Describes deformation and stress and the thermodynamics of fluid-infiltrated porous continua.
Details the standard problems of saturated poroelasticity.
Analyses unsaturated poroelastic media, the effects of capillary pressure and of the surface energy between components.
Discusses non-line ar and inelastic behaviours.
Deals with penetration fronts and surfaces of discontinuity.
Addresses the mechanical behaviour of chemically active porous materials.
Gives some insights on microporomechanics.
Offers advanced analyses at the end of each chapter.
Poromechanics will appeal to postgraduates students and researchers in disciplines as varied as biomechanics, geophysics, soil and rock mechanics, agricultural engineering and materials science in a broad sense. This book is also a valuable resource for advanced courses on poromechanics.
