This Part of this European Standard specifies the requirements for hot rolled non alloy steel sheet piling in respect of its chemical composition, mechanical properties and conditions of delivery. The products specified are for general, structural and civil engineering works. Requirements in respect of tolerances on shape and dimensions are specified in Part 2 of this European Standard.

In 1971 the Institution of Structural Engineers published a report on the Stability of modern buildings as a result of its conference on industrialized buildings, the collapse of prefabricated buildings under erection at Aldershot and the aftermath of the tragic accident at Ronan Point. That report was largely concerned with high-rise construction, and it was in 1984 that the Institution formed a Committee to prepare a successor to deal
with stability of all types of building whether high or low rise.
The new report was to describe the disturbing forces, to advise on stability for most forms of construction, and to consider stability during construction.
One ofthe difficulties facing the Committee was to arrive at a definition of stability for buildings and how to separate considerations of stability from those of strength. Expressions such as 'sensitivity', 'structural integrity', 'robustness' and 'lack of obviousor hidden wobbliness' were put before the Committee but rejected in favour of 'stability' with a definition in the text.
The report sets out the many aspects of design and construction that have to be taken into account so that structures remain in a stable state at all times. It is hoped that it will make a positive contribution to good practice in the office and on site.

This manual provides a review of experience and design theory regarding steel pipe used for conveying water. Major revisions to the third edition included in this edition are: the manual was metricized and edited throughout; a discussion of Chemistry, Casting and Heat Treatment (Sec. 1.3) and a discussion of stress evaluation in spiral-welded pipe (Sec. 1.12) were added to Chapter 1; Table 4-1 was revised to reflect new steel grades and Charpy test requirements for pipe with wall thicknesses greater than 1 - 2 in. (12.7 mm); calculations for external fluid pressure (Sec. 4.4) were revised to include consideration of pipe stiffness added by the cement-mortar coating and lining; in Table 6-1, values of E' used for calculation of pipe deflection were revised to reflect increasing soil stiffness with increasing depth of cover; in Chapter 7, the discussion of ring girder design was revised, and a design example was added; Chapter 9, Fittings and Appurtenances, was revised to reflect the provisions of AWWA C208-96; a new section on installation of flanged joints was added to Chapter 12; and, thrust-restraint design calculations in Chapter 13 were revised.

I'm searching the methods in the literature on design of piles used for landslide stabilization. I have been looking for the paper below written by Viggiani, for a long time. But I couldn't find it on the internet. I want your help to get it. I will be grateful, if anyone help me.
