On 12 July 2007 the Civil Engineering Contractors Association (CECA) will issue a
revised edition of the “Schedules of Dayworks Carried out Incidental to Contract
Work”. The new edition, replacing the previous Schedules issued in 2002, is the
publication referred to in the ICE Conditions of Contract to assist pricing of work
undertaken on a daywork basis where no other schedules are included with contract
documentation. Rates and prices included in the Schedules apply to work carried out
on a daywork basis on or after the date of publication. All plant rates have been recalculated to better reflect current costs which contractors expend in carrying out
additional work on a labour, plant and material basis.
The “bible” of the water quality industry – updated to reflect the latest trends, technologies, and regulations
Operations of Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants— MOP 11 is the industry flagship book, focusing on the operation and maintenance of municipal wastewater treatment plants. Presented in three shrinkwrapped, hardcover volumes, this classic resource incorporates the experiences, best practices, and innovations from thousands of wastewater plants. Taken as a whole, these three volumes represent the most complete package of information available to the wastewater treatment industry.

In this volume scientists and researchers from industry discuss the new trends in simulation and computing shell-like structures. The focus is put on the following problems: new theories (based on two-dimensional field equations but describing non-classical effects), new constitutive equations (for materials like sandwiches, foams, etc. and which can be combined with the two-dimensional shell equations), complex structures (folded, branching and/or self intersecting shell structures, etc.) and shell-like structures on different scales (for example: nano-tubes) or very thin structures (similar to membranes, but having a compression stiffness). In addition, phase transitions in shells and refined shell thermodynamics are discussed. The chapters of this book are the most exciting contributions presented at the EUROMECH 527 Colloquium “Shell-like structures: Non-classical Theories and Applications” held in Wittenberg, Germany.

The document:
- introduces the basic concepts used to discuss fire and fire safety;
- describes the notion of fire risk;
- demystifies terms such as active protection and Fire Safety Engineering;
- puts the regulations into context;
- describes the behaviour of concrete and steel materials during and after a fire;
- shows that concrete integrated into a structure in the form of reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete or masonry gives such structures remarkable fire resistance and good prospects for renovation after fire.

The book investigates how, and which, forgiving road environments (FOR) and self-explaining road measures (SER) will contribute to increasing road safety and also increase network efficiency on the road.
It presents both the general approach and the methodology for generating the possible FOR and SER measures. The book further discusses the prioritization and the testing methodologies, as well as the designing VMS methodology.
The next parts of the book present a few important examples: lane departure warning systems; intelligent speed adaptation systems and perception enhancement studies; designs of European pictorial signs, e.g. for VMS but also examples of designs of European road wordings; and finally how personalization can take place of VMS signs and wordings for the individual driver.
The last part shows the final evaluation of FOR and SER, and detailed Multiple Criterion Analysis and Cost Benefit Analyses are performed on a number of FOR and SER measures. This results in the development of a set of guidelines, conclusions and recommendations for the future.

How Structures Work:
Design and Behaviour from Bridges to Buildings
Author: David Yeomans
Edition: illustrated
Publisher: John Wiley and Sons, 2009
ISBN: 1405190175, 9781405190176
Length: 248 pages
Pdf: 14.4 mb Pdf Quality Condition: 8 points (over 10), scanned copy
The alliance between architecture and structural engineering is fundamental to the design of the buildings and bridges around us. Anyone who needs or wants to “understand” a building must have a good understanding of the structural concepts involved. Yet “structure” is often cloaked in mathematics – which many find difficult to get to grips with.
How Structures Work has been written to explain the behaviour of structures in a clear way without resorting to complex mathematics. Using the minimum of mathematics it explains the structural concepts clearly, illustrated by many historical and contemporary examples, allowing readers to build up a general understanding of structures. In this way they can easily comprehend the structural aspects of buildings for themselves.
Primarily aimed at students who require a good qualitative understanding of the behaviour of structures and their materials, it will be of particular interest to students of architecture and building surveying, plus architectural historians and conservationists. The straightforward, non-mathematical approach ensures it will also be suitable for a wider audience including building administrators, archaeologists and the interested layman.
