Glass stands for openness and transparency. In contemporary glass architecture these associations are utilized in a subtle and highly intentional way. Some buildings appear low-key and reduced to express elegance and seriousness, other provide deep insights to set a stage for profiling and a vivid exchange between inside and outside. In either case innovative glass buildings generate unexpected perspectives, individual communication channels and a temporary feeling of freedom in an actually closed spatiality. In this title about 60 projects from all around the world will be presented with texts, photos as well as sketches and drawings.

Dear member, who have this course, please share. It must be very helpful.
Author(s) / Developer: S. K. Ghosh and Susan Dowty
Description: This one-day seminar was presented by Dr. S. K. Ghosh and Susan Dowty, S.E., in Southern California in July, 2009, and was professionally recorded at the site. The seminar addresses the top 10 misunderstood structural provisions in ASCE 7-05 and related IBC structural provisions. The following ten topics are discussed, including a presentation of answers to questions that we have received on the
application of related provisions:
1. Redundancy Factor
2. Drift Determination and Building Separation
3. Minimum Seismic Design Base Shear
4. Live Load Reduction
5. Seismic Analysis Procedure Selection
6. Enclosure Classification for Wind Design
7. Special Seismic Load Combinations
8. R, Cd and Overstrength Factor Values for Horizontal and Vertical Combinations
9. Seismic and Wind Design of Parapets
10. Torsion, Torsional Irregularity and Direction of Seismic Loading
Total Duration: 6 hrs
PDH Earned: 6

During our last update in forum, unfortunately we missed some user information. "User Avatars" and "user awards" are missing information.
I`m very sorry for this issue.
we can restore these data from our backup but it needs to be closed site and also need we accept high risk to destroy other information.
I think it is better to not restore data.
I request you to re-upload or re-select your avatar, and if you have not your avatar post here and I`ll give your avatar from our backup.
and about awards, we try to give old medals users.
I`m very sorry for this issue.
please reupload your avatar again and if need post here to give you, your old avatar. also I request you, do not use tinypic or imagehack for uploading your avatars.
The use of fibrous materials in civil engineering, both as structural reinforcement and in non-structural applications such as geotextiles, is an important and interesting development. Fibrous and composite materials for civil engineering applications analyzes the types and properties of fibrous textile and structures and their applications in reinforcement and civil engineering.
Part 1 introduces different types of fibrous textiles and structures. Chapters cover the properties of natural and man-made fibers and of yarns, as well as an overview of textile structures. Part 2 focuses on fibrous material use in concrete reinforcement, with chapters on the properties and applications of steel fiber reinforced concrete, natural fiber reinforced concrete and the role of fiber reinforcement in mitigating shrinkage cracks. In part 3, the applications of fibrous material-based composites in civil engineering are covered. Chapters concentrate on production techniques and applications such as reinforcement of internal structures, structural health monitoring and textile materials in architectural membranes.

Environmental Science Experiments introduces students to the challenges in balancing the use of resources with maintaining a healthy environment. The experiments in this title encourage students to increase their awareness of the environment, the impact of environmental change, and how Earth's residents can stop or slow the destruction of habitats. From experiments about acid rain and oil spills to studying a freshwater habitat and investigating alternative fuels, the experiments in this book will serve as inspiration for students to pursue an education in a related field.

BS 5839-1:2002+A2:2008 Fire detection and fire alarm systems for buildings. Code of practice for system design, installation, commissioning and maintenance
BS 5839-1:2002+A2:2008 sets the standard for fire detection and alarm systems in non-residential buildings. This code of practice gives essential guidance on effective design, installation and maintenance. And these are the latest recommendations on protecting your organization through fire detection and prevention. BS 5839-1:2002+A2:2008 applies to all fire alarm systems, from small manual networks to complex automated systems.
Best practice guidelines cover:
fire extinguishing equipment
smoke control
automated door release
and other critical safety measures.
Guidance on fire detection and alarm systems in residential buildings is given in BS 5839-6 .
How does it work?
BS 5839-1:2002+A2:2008 shows you how to meet the fire detection and alarm system code of practice. It takes you from planning and design to installation and maintenance, outlining responsibilities and competencies for fire risk assessment.
All fire alarm system types are simplified and explained, including:
automatic and multi-sensor detection
carbon monoxide and video smoke detection
cable types in networked systems
how to limit false alarms through more efficient design.
Who should buy it?
Risk and health and safety managers and auditors
Fire alarm engineers and inspectors
Organizations that want to update an existing fire detection and alarm system
Organization that want to implement a fire detection and alarm system.
What’s new?
BS 5839-1:2002+A2:2008 has been revised to include the latest technology and recommendations for fire detection and alarm systems.
