A Method for Dynamic Characteristics Estimation of Subsurface using Microtremor on the Ground Surface
Author: Yutaka NAKAMURA | Size: 557 KB | Format:PDF | Publisher: QR of RTRI | Year: 1989 | pages: 25-33
Original paper of Nakamura defining H/V technique for estimating local site predominant period and relative soil amplification.
Summary:
This paper describes a new processing method that employs microtremor observation yet producing accurate estimation of characteristics of the ground motion. The method uses vertical component and horizontal components.
As a result, the spectrum ratio of the horizontal components and vertical component of microtremor bears resemblance to transfer function for horizontal motion of surface layers.

Hi dear friends
I'm defending my master thesis tommorow, and after that I'll probably be unemployed,
I was thinking on trying to move somewhere, and my currently No 1 location wish is Canada. Are there any canadian member on the forum, which might help me? I didn't yet apply for the canadian skilled worker program, cause I don't know the exact requirement. What do I have to do to legally become a structural engineer in Canada? Any help would be appreciated.
If anybody has it, pls share this book. Thanx in advance.

This Special Publication contains 15 papers that were presented at technical sessions sponsored by Joint ACI-ASCE Committee 445, Shear and Torsion, at the 2010 ACI Spring Convention in Chicago, IL. Topics covered in the papers include an introduction to the method, design examples, common problems experienced in real design applications, additional guidance for use the strut-and-tie model (STM), and an assessment of existing requirements.

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.
