The popular RC-spreadsheets package has been revised following the recent amendment to the UK National Annex to Eurocode 2 in December 2009. Version 4 of the spreadsheets provides for rapid production of design calculations to Eurocode 2 and the UK NA. The RCC series of spreadsheets have also been modified: they are suitable for design calculations to the now withdrawn BS 8110 (up to and including Amendment 4).
For the experienced engineer, the spreadsheets allow the rapid production of clear and accurate design calculations. For post-graduates and new engineers they encourage understanding of concrete design and help the gaining of experience by studying 'what if' scenarios. The individual user is able to answer their own questions by chasing through the cells to understand the logic used.
Since their release in January 2000, the RC Spreadsheets have proved to be enormously popular. They are written for engineers by engineers. The original spreadsheets have evolved and been added to and the usefulness and robustness of the product have been enhanced by users feedback. If you have any comments please let us know.

BS EN 14891:2007 Liquid applied water impermeable products for use beneath ceramic tiling bonded with adhesives. Requirements, test methods, evaluation of conformity, classification and designation
The process of integration, in the broadest sense, has been a characteristic feature
of the development of politics, economics and specific economic and technological
fields in the last thirty years. The greater the necessity for relationships befween
functionally interdependent elements, and the more easily these relationships can
be realized, the sooner have systems been formed from these elements. The large-scale
systems developed in economics, energetics, transportation, and, since the sixties,
water management, require a qualitatively new approach and treatment.
The modern engineer, now and in the future, has to supplement individual reasoning
and creative work with a scientific approach to engineering tasks. Basically, the research-
scientist investigates and explains existing natural phenomena and the relationships
between them; the engineer creates something which is new and which
will become useful. Their activities mutually influence each other. In earlier times
engineering was more closely related to art, since engineering and art have the
element of creation in common; now engineering is closer to science.
In accordance with social needs, the research scientist is trained to demonstrate
theoretically the possibility of constructing a technical creations as a new, not yet
existing, reality and to bring it into existence. The classification of creative work
in applied research and development as scientific activity can be adopted without
hesitation. The relationship sciencdevelopment-implementation conceives of
science as an integral part of production.
If issues of water resource systems are to be treated at the contemporary level of
scientific knowledge, the appropriate, related scientific fields, such as systems analysis,
the probability theory, operations research etc. need to be understood.
The aim of this book, which deals with water management, is to present the basic
facts on complex water resource systems using the systems approach. Since no final
interpretation of the basic terms and concepts is available, they have been defined
in relation to another application of systems science, namely economics.
The fundamentals of the new, related scientific disciplines, the results of which
are used in complex water resource systems, have been included in the book to facilitate
reading and reduce the number of necessary reference books.The references
included in this book are intended for further study. The examples serve to show the
application of the general theory. Knowledge of the elements of theory of probability,
mathematical statistics, computer programming, hydrology and water
management has been assumed.
The book concentrates mainly on the problems of effective water supply and water
resource conservation in water resource systems. The issue of water quality in watercourses
and the special issues of waterworks, sewerage, navigation and hydroelectric
power generation have not been analysed in detail apart from the aspect of water
resource management.
More attention should be paid to the subsystem of flood control, its relationship
to the environment and its technical and economic relationships to water supplydemand
integration. A reference for more detailed investigation is given.
In the branches of science which deal with systems many issues and questions
have to be answered. This is also true of those disciplines where the systems approach
and the application of systems sciences were first introduced, e. g. automatic control
and economics; it naturally applies to the problems of water management, as proved,
for example, by five international symposia - “Water Resource Systems” held in
Czechoslovakia, first in Karlovy Vary, 1972, and the last in Znojmo, 1987.
The book sets out to offer the reader a set of principles and methods for dealing
with water resource systems on a scientific basis.It is hoped that, along with the basic
facts, it will provide an impetus to the further development of promising progressive
methods of dealing with the problems of water management by means of a systems
approach.
The theme of this book won a place in a competition held by the Czech Society of
Engineers and the Publishers of Technical Literature. The authors are indebted to
these institutes for the publication of this book.
The authors wish to express their special thanks to the following institutions:
Water Resources Development and Construction, Technical University of Prague,
the Faculty of Civil Engineering; Hydroproject, Prague, the Committee for Water
Management of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, and to individual members
of these institutions for their helpful suggestions. The authors wish to acknowledge
their gratitude to many colleagues, reviewers and students who have contributed
to the completion of this book.

Wetland and Water Resource Modeling and Assessment: A Watershed Perspective (Integrative Studies in Water Management and Land Development)

As a wetland of international importance located in China ,the Poyang Lake Basin's incredible topographical and biological diversity has provided a congregating point for scientists from around the world to engage in cross-disciplinary research. In particular, the International Conference on Poyang Lake Complex Environment System was instrumental in bringing together scholars from China, North America, and Europe to explore the latest innovations in water resource science and watershed management. Featuring cutting-edge research in watershed management presented at this landmark event, Wetland and Water Resource Modeling Assessment pairs the accounts of Poyang Lake with additional information on the important watersheds of North America and Asia to help facilitate the development of decision support tools. The book explains that successful ecosystem assessment and modeling requires three key criteria: 1. Large spatial scales in data collection and analysis must be used to encompass major watershed features 2. Landscape features are needed to appropriately characterize hydrological processes and ecosystem components 3. Management decisions must be linked to results to facilitate ecosystem assessment Through the study of the diverse watersheds featured in Wetland and Water Resource Modeling Assessment, such as Poyang Lake, government, academia, and Industry can obtain the innovative technical tools needed to stay on top of this active field.

Researchers and decision makers who study natural resources and, in particular, water resource management, have acknowledged the significant role of hydroinformatics. The Handbook of Research on Hydroinformatics: Technologies, Theories and Applications describes how hydroinformatics applications, tools and decision aids are manifested and can be integrated and enhanced in organizations, while presenting hydroinformatics as a function of both human and technological interactions. This book provides the latest research on the use of hydroinformatics to establish sustained linkages between the water system and other related system
