Am doing my final year project on No Fines Concrete. If anyone here has any documents, journals or any publications related to No Fines Concrete please send me the link or refer me to the web. I will be very grateful to you all engineers if you can help me with my degree project.
I need the following book. If anyone have, please provide the links. Thanks in advance.
Climate Change and Groundwater - Special Publication no 288 (Geological Society Special Publication)
Author: W. Dragoni (Author, Editor), B. S. Sukhija (Editor) | Size: aa MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Geological Society of London (May 15, 2008) | Year: 2008 | pages: 192 | ISBN: 1862392358 or 9781862392359
Hydrogeology is a topical and growing subject as the earth's water resources become scarcer and more vulnerable. More than half of the surface area of continents is covered with hard rocks of low permiability.
This book deals comprehensively with the fundamental principles for understanding the hydrogeological characteristics of rocks, as well as exploration techniques and assessment. It also provides in depth discussion on structural mapping, remote sensing, geophysical exploration, GIS, groundwater flow modelling and contaminant transport, field hydraulic testing including tracer tests, groundwater quality, geothermal reservoirs, managed aquifer recharge, and resources assessment and management.
Hydrogeological aspects of various lithology groups, including crystalline rocks, volcanic rocks, carbonate rocks and clastic formations have been dealt with separately, using and discussing examples from all over the world. It will be an invaluable text book cum reference source for postgraduate students, researchers, exploration scientists and engineers engaged in the field of groundwater development in fractured rocks.
Applied Hydrogeology of Fractured Rocks - Second Edition is thoroughly revised and extended with a new chapter, updated sections, many new examples, and expanded and updated references.

HI,
DOES ANYONE HAVE THE FOLLOWING:
Dictionary of rock mechanics in six languages German, English, French, Russian, Czech, Spanish. (Dictionnaire de mécanique des roches en six langues allemand, anglais, français, russe, tchèque, espagnol )
A retaining wall or retaining structure is used for maintaining the ground surfgaces at defrent elevations on either side of it. Whenever embankments are involed in construction ,retaining wall are usually necessary. In the construction of buildins having basements, retaining walls are mandatory. Similsrly in bridge work, the wing walls and abutments etc. are designed as retaining walls , to resist earth pressure along with superimposed loads. The material retained or supported by a retaining wall is called backfill lying above the horizontal plane at the elevation of the top of a wall is called the surcharge, and its inclination to horizontal is called the surcharge angle b

Dear members,
Does anyone has at least the paper bellow? Please upload it. It is very useful in geotechnical engineering. It will be greatful if that this paper exists in our forum.
POTTS D.M., BONDA.J. (1994) Calculation of structural forces for propped retaining walls, XIII ICSMFE, 1994, New Delhi, India, pp. 823 - 826.
Does anybody have any spreadsheet or software for design of counterfort retaining walls. I really need that for design of two retaining walls with around 10 meters height. I want to make sure of the calculations and give a good design report to the client.
If not any spreadsheet, I would also appreciate some sample calculations of the counterfort retaining walls.
Your world is filled with structures that have stood the test of time. That give character to the cities and landscapes in which they're located. That are visited by millions of people each year. And that capture our wonder for the marvels of engineering innovation and progress.
But while structures such as the Giza pyramids, Brunelleschi's dome, and the Brooklyn Bridge are visual spectacles in and of themselves, they are just as important for the way they were designed as for the way they look. These and other structural masterpieces were, first and foremost, novel creations born from the most progressive engineering concepts and tools of their day. They represent uniquely effective solutions to perplexing structural concerns. And they serve as landmark moments in the millennia-long history of engineering.
Now, experience the engineering genius that makes these works possible with Understanding the World's Greatest Structures: Science and Innovation from Antiquity to Modernity—a marvelous learning experience that takes you around the world and reveals the stories behind the most famous bridges, churches, skyscrapers, towers, and other structures from thousands of years of history. Delivered by award-winning Professor Stephen Ressler of the United States Military Academy at West Point, a civil engineer and a nationally honored leader in engineering education, these 24 lectures take you on a fascinating and richly illustrated tour that deftly blends history and science to create an unforgettable survey of our world's most remarkable structural masterpieces, one informed by the fundamentals of structural engineering and their underlying scientific principles.
