This book discusses the durability of construction materials in the context of structures. Steel, concrete, timber, masonry, aluminium, plastics and composites are all dealt with. The state of the art is presented for each material and the effects of the environment on durability are covered, including the particular problems faced with, for example, underground structures, and structures in marine and tropical environments. Where appropriate, authors assess properties of materials before considering the performance of structures. Each chapter is augmented by numerous examples illustrating the durability of elements in a structure, the performance of materials, and any problems encountered with durability. How these problems are overcome and improvement of durability is discussed as appropriate. The chapters are written by an international team of authors, resulting in a wide spread of information, drawing upon vast cumulative experience and illustrated by many real examples.

Hey guys. My name is Ross, I'm 22 years old and just recently started getting a big liking for civil engineering. My uncle came back from Dubai and the pictures are one of the things that just set me off. My whole life I have loved architecture and what not. So after years of working to figure out what I want to do in life I'm headed on that track. Currently enrolled in community college to finish out two years of classes, then I want to transfer to a CSU with a good Civil Engineering Program. ( I live in California. )
I'm wondering if anyone has any background into what it will be like in the whole. I understand the coursework loads and all the hard times I will have but I mean can anyone tell me the real experience of being a civil engineer? Anything to really spark my interest, something you have done or seen that has really made you love being an engineer?
I will be looking forward to hanging around these forums...
Dear our fourm members and staff
Herein Drawings group for Chinese champion (Guan Yu Effigy ) project
Guan Yu (Chinese: was a general under the warlord Liu Bei during the late Eastern Han Dynasty and Three Kingdoms era of China. He played a significant role in the civil war that led to the collapse of the Han Dynasty and the establishment of the Kingdom of Shu, of which Liu Bei was the first emperor.
One of the best known Chinese historical figures throughout East Asia, Guan Yu's true life stories have largely given way to fictionalized ones, mostly found in the historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms or passed down the generations, in which his deeds and moral qualities have been much exaggerated.
Guan Yu had been deified as early as the Sui Dynasty and is still being worshiped by Chinese people today, especially in Hong Kong. While being seen as the epitome of loyalty and righteousness, Guan Yu had been criticized by historians for being arrogant and vain, qualities that eventually led to his downfall in the hands of Sun Quan, lord of Eastern Wu.

Hi
I need paper in science direct : "A unified analysis model for energy dissipation devices used in seismic structures"
"Semi-active control of a building complex with variable friction
dampers "
"Method of estimating the parameters of tunedmass dampers for seismic applications"
"Semi-active tuned mass dampers for seismic protection of civil
structures"
The purpose of this guidance manual is to help local road officials gain a better understanding of:
- Typical problems that can result from improper maintenance of unpaved roads;
- How to prevent unpaved road problems from contributing to water quality problems using low-tech, common sense strategies
To do this, this manual presents guidelines on Best Management Practices (BMP’s) that can be used to improve water quality in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts while enhancing the quality of unpaved roads. These guidelines should not be considered definitive design specifications for BMP’s, as individual site conditions will always determine the level of design necessary for success at any given site.
This manual is designed for those who supervise highway departments, work in road crews, or are otherwise involved in maintaining public or private roadways. The information contained within is meant to help road maintenance decision-makers understand that unpaved roads can be managed in such a way so as to not be contributors to water quality problems.
