This manual provides state-of-the-practice methods and techniques to assist the highway engineer in the planning, design, and construction monitoring of dynamic compaction to improve the load supporting capacity of weak foundation soils. Guidelines are presented for:
* completing a preliminary evaluation to determine if dynamic compaction is appropriate for the site and subsurface conditions
* detailed design for site improvement
* preparation of a specification
* construction monitoring
Two case histories of actual projects are presented to demonstrate the use of the guidelines.

Microzonation has to be performed in municipalities with more than
30,000 inhabitants.
The purpose of the Seismic Microzonation Manual is to illustrate a microzonation
methodology developed for Turkey.
Microzonation is an efficient tool to mitigate the earthquake risk by
hazard-related land use management. Microzonation does not replace
the existing Turkish building and construction codes.
This manual has different purposes for specific Turkish authorities, public
and private enterprises:
- It should advise the responsible government agencies on how to
review and evaluate microzonation studies in Turkey performed by
private or public enterprises;
- It should inform municipal authorities about the required inputs for
and outputs from a microzonation project;
- It should define technical recommendations for private or public
companies commissioned with the execution of a microzonation
project.
This manual consists of three chapters:
- Chapter 1 is directed to the general audience (approving agency,
municipalities, commissioned enterprise, public). It gives general
definitions of terms used in this document and characterizes earthquake
effects to be taken into account when performing a microzonation
project. It also describes in general the microzonation
method developed, its relation to the Turkish Building Code, the
investigations needed to perform such a microzonation and how to
interpret the different microzonation maps in order to develop corresponding
building regulations;
- Chapter 2 is mainly directed to the enterprise commissioned to perform
the microzonation study. It gives practical and technical
guidelines as well as recommendations to perform the microzonation
method described in Chapter 1 efficiently;
- Chapter 3 describes the tasks and responsibilities of the municipalities
commissioning microzonation studies and implementing the
results of these studies into their land use management system.

This manual provides guidance for performance-based design and evaluation of concrete hydraulic structures (CHS). It introduces procedures that show how to design or evaluate a hydraulic structure to have a predictable performance for specified levels of seismic hazard. Traditional design and evaluation procedures may still be used for feasibility and screening purposes. However, for critical facilities, they should be followed by the procedures of this manual to prevent sudden collapse even though the structure may suffer severe damage, to limit damage to a repairable level, or to maintain functionality immediately after the earthquake.

1.About this book
This the fourth volume of five from the 28th IMAC on Structural Dynamics and Renewable Energy, 2010, brings together 29 chapters on the Dynamics of Civil Structures. It presents early findings from experimental and computational investigations of Civil Structures, including studies such as Characterization of a Strongly Nonlinear Laboratory Benchmark System, A Non-destructive Technique for the Health Monitoring of Tie-rods in Ancient Buildings, Estimating Effective Prestress Force on Grouted Tendon by Impact Responses, Experimental Investigation of Dynamic Load Estimation Using Small-scale Testing, and Prediction of Prestress Force on Grouted Tendon by Experimental Modal Analysis.

Transmission and Distribution Electrical Engineering
Author: Dr C. R. Bayliss,B. J. Hardy ACGI | Size: 17.3 MB | Format:PDF
This book covers the major topics likely to be encountered by the transmission and distribution power systems engineer engaged upon international project works. Each chapter is self-contained and gives a useful practical introduction to each topic covered. The book is intended for graduate or technician level
engineers and bridges the gap between learned university theoretical textbooks and detailed single topic references. It therefore provides a practical grounding
in a wide range of transmission and distribution subjects. The aim of the book is to assist the project engineer in correctly specifying equipment and systems for
his particular application. In this way manufacturers and contractors should receive clear and unambiguous transmission and distribution equipment or project
enquiries for work and enable competitive and comparative tenders to be received. Of particular interest are the chapters on project, system and software
management since these subjects are of increasing importance to power systems engineers. In particular the book should help the reader to understand the reasoning
behind the different specifications and methods used by different electrical
supply utilities and organizations throughout the world to achieve their
specific transmission and distribution power system requirements. The second
edition includes updates and corrections, together with the addition of two extra
major chapters covering distribution planning and power system harmonics.

Two- and three-dimensional bearing-capacity solutions for footings on two-layered clays
Geomechanics and Geoengineering
Volume 1, Issue 2, 2006
DOI: 10.1080/17486020600632637
Authors: R. S. Merifielda* & V. Q. Nguyena
pages 151-162
In this paper, finite element analysis is used to predict the undrained bearing capacity of strip, square and circular footings resting on layered clays. The soil profile consists of two clay layers with different thicknesses and properties. The results are compared with previous solutions for strip footings on layered clays. The bearing-capacity behavior is discussed and the bearing-capacity factors are given for various cases involving a range of layer thicknesses and properties of the two clay soil layers.
