This independent manual provides airport planners and architects with an essential guide and reference tool, based on the authorβs extensive experience in the field and involvement in developing best practice airline and airport industry guidelines.
Chapter 1 discusses the key issues airport planners need to take account of, including forecasting demand, planning and strategic objectives, physical site constraints, airport security and the characteristics of terminals, satellites and piers. Chapter 1 also discusses cargo and aircraft maintenance facilities, general airfield infrastructure, landscaping and access provision. Chapter 2 refers to the outline development planning principles specified by IATA for masterplan development. Masterplan evaluation techniques are also explored and the authorβs own approach to independent development planning is explained, setting the context for the chapters that follow.
Chapter 3 focuses on the design of the terminal pier and satellite infrastructure, particularly in the context of effective passenger segregation. This chapter also discusses and explains the various airside and landside retail models and shows how to obtain optimized landside and airside retail income. Chapter 4 reviews baggage handling system design concepts, referencing the three categories of baggage handling system and the technologies that support them. The pros and cons of different hold baggage screening locations and technologies are explored, including next generation baggage handling systems. Chapter 5 covers apron design, including such features as passenger airbridges and Multi-Aircraft Ramping Systems (MARS) for aircraft parking. The needs of both low-cost and legacy carriers are explored. Chapter 6 focuses on airport security, discussing potential threats to aircraft and airports, including the potential impact of explosives on airport infrastructure. The chapter also explains best practice for improving security in terminals, piers, satellites, car parks and forecourts as well as the airport perimeter. The final chapter comprises a series of airport case-studies, including airports processing predominantly low-cost and those processing predominantly legacy carriers. The case studies provide the designer with real examples of processes and layouts within airports.

Folks,
Do anyone of you have reference drawings for tall buildings, from projects you have worked on or have copies of.
I am particularly interested to see how core walls / columns etc. get scheduled and detailed in the drawings. I don't think there is any better resource than looking at drawings from buildings that have been constructed.

Author: Michael Plesha, Gary Gray, Francesco Costanzo | Size: 75 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math | Year: 2009 | pages: 704 | ISBN: 0077275535
Plesha, Gray, and Costanzoβs Engineering Mechanics: Statics & Dynamics presents the fundamental concepts, clearly, in a modern context using applications and pedagogical devices that connect with todayβs students.
The text features a five-part problem-solving methodology that is consistently used throughout all example problems. This methodology helps students lay out the steps necessary to correct problem-formulation and explains the steps needed to arrive at correct and realistic solutions. Once students have fully mastered the basic concepts, they are taught appropriate use of modern computational tools where applicable.
Further reinforcing the text's modern emphasis, the authors have brought engineering design considerations into selected problems where appropriate. This sensitizes students to the fact that engineering problems do not have a single answer and many different routes lead to a correct solution.
The first new mainstream text in engineering mechanics in nearly twenty years, Plesha, Gray, and Costanzoβs Engineering Mechanics: Statics and Dynamics will help your students learn this important material efficiently and effectively.

Flammability testing of materials used in construction, transport and mining >> By V Apte, formerly Fire Science and Technology Laboratory, CSIRO, Australia
Author: V Apte, formerly Fire Science and Technology Laboratory, CSIRO, Australia | Size: 4.26 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Woodhead Publishing Limited | Year: January 2006 | pages: 478 | ISBN: ISBN 1 85573 935 6 ISBN-13: 978 1 85573 935 2
V Apte, formerly Fire Science and Technology Laboratory, CSIRO, Australia
- an authoritative guide to best practice in ensuring safe design
- defines flammability and the main types of test available
- a vital reference source for civil and transport engineers
Engineers need to be able to test the flammability of the materials they use in buildings and other structures. However, the range of test procedures and regulations in this important area is often confusing. Flammability testing of materials used in construction, transport and mining provides an authoritative guide to current best practice in ensuring safe design.
The book begins by defining flammability and the main types of test available. Building on this foundation, a group of chapters then reviews tests for key materials used in buildings and their contents. There are chapters on wood, external cladding and sandwich panels as well as the flammability of walls and ceilings. Tests for furniture fabrics, cables and electrical appliances are also reviewed. A final group of chapters discusses other types of test, particularly in the transport sector, including chapters on flammability testing for railway passenger cars, aircraft, road and rail tunnels.
With its distinguished international team of contributors, Flammability testing of materials used in construction, transport and mining is a standard reference for civil and transport engineers in particular.
