Dear member.
Where I can get scholarship for Graduated program. Now I'm in 6th semester and I want to continue my study abroad(I'm from Indonesia). I think America or Europe is good choice.

A large percentage of the bridges built in California are prestressed, post-tensioned type structures. As a bridge engineer working for the Divisions of Structure Construction, you should understand the construction principles relating to prestressed, post-tensioned bridge construction.
This Prestress Manual has been compiled to provide the field engineer with the necessary information and the background to perform three basic duties:
1. Check the contractor’s working drawings.
2. Provide thorough and complete inspection during the construction of the bridge with respect to the prestressing operation.
3. Understand and enforce Section 50 titled “Prestressing Concrete” of the Standard Specifications and any pertinent references.
The information included herein is to be considered as both a reference and guideline for structure representatives and assistant structure representatives. This manual should be reviewed both prior to working drawing review and during the prestressing operation. This manual should be available to the field engineer during the post-tensioning operation.
This manual, along with good communication between the structure representative, Structure Design, Materials Engineering and Testing Services (METS), and the contractor, will provide a finished product consisting of sound structural integrity with a minimal amount of construction related problems.

DESIGN OF ALL-BOLTED EXTENDED DOUBLE ANGLE, SINGLE ANGLE, AND TEE SHEAR CONNECTIONS
Author: PERRY GREEN, THOMAS SPUTO, ADAM HIGGINS | Size: 4.7 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: AISC | Year: 2005 | pages: 430
This report presents a methodology for the design of all-bolted extended double angle, single angle, and tee shear connections. The report covers only the design of extended connections that involve beams and girders, but the principles set forth can be applied to connections to columns as well. Current steel connection design methodologies do not have standards for the design of extended connections which do not require that the beam be coped to allow clearance for the girder flange. Coping is an expensive and time consuming process which fabricators like to avoid if at all possible. Extended connections are a practical way to avoid coping. Using basic mechanics and code specific equations, a practical design for all-bolted extended shear connections can be derived. The derived methodology is used to formulate design tables that simplify the process. This report includes examples of how to use the design tables to design allbolted extended connections. The tables include design resistances for a wide range of angle and tee materials and bolts diameters, as well as different connection types.

SCI P313: Single storey steel framed buildings in fire boundary conditions
Author: W I Simms, G M Newman | Size: 1.08 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: SCI | Year: 2002 | pages: 86 | ISBN: 1859421350
Building regulations require that external walls of single storey buildings that are close to the site boundaries should have fire resistance, to at least part of the walls. Any structure that provides support to such walls also has to have fire resistance. This publication provides, in addition to UK building regulations, design recommendations and guidance for single storey buildings for design in fire situations. Based on earlier research and study, it shows that fire protection to the roof structure, which would be expensive to provide, is not necessary, provided that recommendations on column base design are followed. The advice and recommendations cover single and multi-bay portal frames, monopitch portal frames, gable frames and frames with trussed roofs. The background to the recommendations is given and the mathematical models are explained.

Author: Armitage, J. S. and Judge, C. J. | Size: 2.74 MB | Format:PDF | Year: 1987 | pages: 24 | ISBN: 9780851252476
Abstract
Identifies the different types of storage and materials-handling systems currently in use and gives examples of actual loads and pressures that may be imposed on the floor. It includes data on loads and pressures from different storage systems and from a range of trucks and handling equipment. It concludes that there is such a large variability in possible loads in warehouses that the use of a single minimum imposed load in design could result in a significant proportion of warehouses being either excessively expensive or structurally inadequate. It recommends that the current values in codes should be reviewed and that consideration should be given to defining responsibilities for the safe operation and loading of warehouses

Abstract
Various forms of lack of fit may be experienced in the fabrication and erection of a steel structure. From a comprehensive survey of fabricators, consultants and local authorities, it was possible to identify the principal causes of lack of fit, especially where these resulted in disagreement. Guidance is given on the significance of various forms of geometrical imperfection. In particular the behaviour of friction grip and bearing bolt, and welded connections has been studied, together with overall frame fit problems. Advice is given on how to avoid lack of fit difficulties on site, by taking appropriate measures at the design and fabrication stages.

BIM Handbook: A Guide to Building Information Modeling for Owners, Managers, Designer
Author: Chuck Eastman, Paul Teicholz, Rafael Sacks and Kathleen Liston | Size: 8.7 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Wiley | Year: 2011 | pages: 648 | ISBN: 0470541377
"The BIM Handbook is an extensively researched and meticulously written book, showing evidence of years of work rather than something that has been quickly put together in the course of a few months. It brings together most of the current information about BIM, its history, as well as its potential future in one convenient place, and can serve as a handy reference book on BIM for anyone who is involved in the design, construction, and operation of buildings and needs to know about the technologies that support it. The need for such a book is indisputable, and it is terrific that Chuck Eastman and his team were able to step up to the plate and make it happen. Thanks to their efforts, anyone in the AEC industry looking for a deeper understanding of BIM now knows exactly where to look for it."

Discover BIM: A better way to build better buildings
Building Information Modeling (BIM) offers a novel approach to design, construction, and facility management in which a digital representation of the building process is used to facilitate the exchange and interoperability of information in digital format. BIM is beginning to change the way buildings look, the way they function, and the ways in which they are designed and built.
The BIM Handbook, Second Edition provides an in-depth understanding of BIM technologies, the business and organizational issues associated with its implementation, and the profound advantages that effective use of BIM can provide to all members of a project team. Updates to this edition include:
Completely updated material covering the current practice and technology in this fast-moving field
Expanded coverage of lean construction and its use of BIM, with special focus on Integrated Project Delivery throughout the book
New insight on the ways BIM facilitates sustainable building
New information on interoperability schemas and collaboration tools
Six new case studies
Painting a colorful and thorough picture of the state of the art in building information modeling, the BIM Handbook, Second Edition guides readers to successful implementations, helping them to avoid needless frustration and costs and take full advantage of this paradigm-shifting approach to construct better buildings that consume fewer materials and require less time, labor, and capital resources.
