This UFC 3-340-02 presents methods of design for protective construction used in facilities for development, testing, production, storage,maintenance, modification, inspection, demilitarization, and disposal of explosive materials. In so doing, it establishes design procedures and construction techniques whereby propagation of explosion (from one structure or part of a structure to another)or mass detonation can be prevented and personnel and valuable equipment can be protected. This document was previously approved as a tri-service document; Army TM 5-1300, Navy NAVFAC P-397, and Air Force AFR 88-22, dated November 1990

Reinforcing Bar Detailing A Heavily Illustrated Textbook Presenting Fundamentals and Best Practices in the Preparation and Creation of Reinforced Concrete Placing Drawings and Related 5th Edition
This book provides the basic knowledge for a Detailer of reinforcing bars, bar supports and welded wire reinforcement.
Detailing, described briefly, is the preparation of placing drawings complete with bar lists with sufficient information for:
(1) the Fabricator to fabricate the bars and to order (when required by the Contract) the bar supports and welded wire reinforcement; and (2) the Ironworkers to install these products at the jobsite.
The reader is shown how to translate and transfer the requirements presented on structural drawings and other documents onto a proper placing drawing. The language and form of the information are emphasized to achieve simplicity and efficiency for the end users - the Fabricator and the Ironworker.
This textbook is intended for use by technical schools, junior colleges, and for on-the-job training programs. It is assumed that the reader has completed basic courses in high school mathematics, including elementary algebra and plane geometry.
Trigonometry is desirable for the beginner and is necessary for more advanced training. The reader should have completed a course in elementary drafting and have some knowledge of blueprint reading. A course in computer-aided drafting (CAD)is recommended and will most likely be required by companies where CAD is in use. It is also recommended that the reader possess basic computer skills such as those used in data entry, word processing, and spreadsheet applications. Each reinforcing steel company may use somewhat different detailing practices and different formats for its placing drawings and bar lists to suit its particular operation. This textbook represents basic and generally accepted practices. Adjustments to a particular company’s system should be minor.
After completing Part I (Chapters 1 to 14), the Detailer should have an overall perspective to prepare for Part II (Chapters 15 to 18). In Part II, the actual study of reinforcing bar detailing begins.

Load Testing of Bridges: Proof Load Testing and the Future of Load Testing
Author(s)/Editor(s): Lantsoght, Eva O. L. | Size: 21.3 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: CRC Press | Year: 2019 | pages: 347 | ISBN: ISBN-13: 978-0367210830 ISBN-10: 0367210835
Load Testing of Bridges, featuring contributions from almost fifty authors from around the world across two interrelated volumes, deals with the practical aspects, the scientific developments, and the international views on the topic of load testing of bridges.
Volume 13, Load Testing of Bridges: Proof Load Testing and the Future of Load Testing, focuses first on proof load testing of bridges. It discusses the specific aspects of proof load testing during the preparation, execution, and post-processing of such a test (Part 1). The second part covers the testing of buildings. The third part discusses novel ideas regarding measurement techniques used for load testing. Methods using non-contact sensors, such as photography- and video-based measurement techniques are discussed. The fourth part discusses load testing in the framework of reliability-based decision-making and in the framework of a bridge management program. The final part of the book summarizes the knowledge presented across the two volumes, as well as the remaining open questions for research, and provides practical recommendations for engineers carrying out load tests.
This work will be of interest to researchers and academics in the field of civil/structural engineering, practicing engineers and road authorities worldwide

Worldwide, the use of natural gas as a primary energy source will remain vital for decades to come. This applies to industrialized, emerging countries and developing countries. Owing to the low level of impurities, natural gas is considered to be a climate-friendly fossil fuel because of the low CO2 emissions, but is at the same time an affordable source of energy.
In order to enable transport over long distances and oceans (and hence create an economic and political alternative to pipelines), the gas is liquefied, which is accompanied by a considerable reduction in volume, and then transported by ship. Thus, at international ports, many LNG tanks are required for temporary storage and further use. The trend towards smaller liquefaction and regasification plants with associated storage tanks for marine fuel applications has attracted new players in this market who often do not yet have the necessary experience and technical expertise. It is not sufficient to refer to all existing technical standards when defining consistent state-of-the-art specifications and requirements.
The switch to European standardisation has made it necessary to revise and adapt existing national codes to match European standards. Technical committees at national and international level have begun their work of updating and completing the EN 14620 series.
In the USA, too, the corresponding regulations are also being updated. The revision of American Concrete Institute standard ACI 376 Requirements for Design and Construction of Concrete Structures for the Containment of Refrigerated Liquefied Gases, first published in 2011, will be completed in the spring of 2019, and the final version, published in autumn 2019.
This book provides an overview of the state of the art in the design and construction of liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanks. Since the topic is very extensive and complex, an introduction to all aspects is provided, e.g. requirements and design for operating conditions, thermal design, hydrostatic and pneumatic tests, soil surveys and permissible settlement, modelling of and calculations for the concrete structure, and the actions due to fire, explosion and impact. Dynamic analysis and the theory of sloshing liquid are also presented.
