The National Electrical Code is an internationally accepted safety code for electrical and power wiring. It specifies the minimum provisions necessary for protecting people and property from hazards arising from the use of electricity and electrical equipment. Anyone involved in any phase of the electrical industry must be aware of how to use and apply the Code on the job. It undergoes a rigorous review and revision process every 3 years by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). This book is a trusted resource for understanding and applying the Code.
The 25th edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect the changes given in the 2005 National Electrical Code. This is a reference book of commentary, discussion, and analysis on the most commonly encountered rules of the 2005 National Electrical Code. Designed to be used in conjunction with the 2005 NE Code book published by the National Fire Protection Association, this Handbook presents thousands of illustrations—diagrams and photos—to supplement the detailed text in explaining and clarifying NEC regulations. Description of the background and rationale forxiii specific Code rules is aimed at affording a broader, deeper, and readily developed understanding of the meaning and application of those rules. The style of presentation is conversational and intended to facilitate a quick, practical grasp of the ideas and concepts that are couched in the necessarily terse, stiff, quasi-legal language of the NEC document itself.

You can download pdf version from the following link and it contains 5118 pages. After extracting its capacity should be 137 MB. But I didn’t go through all of the pages available as it has over 5000 pages. However as my observation the pdf is ok.

Please note that you have to download all five parts and keep them in a same folder before extracting. Downloading just one file (only about 20 MB) will not work. As i used short link it can't be seen part1, part2,.. at the end of above 5 file. That is why i note it here.
But if you want to get print out, normal Acrobat or Adobe reader may not be useful as it just display pages but not Menu bar, Tool bar and other things. But using Foxit Reader you can get print out easily.
Here is the link for Foxit reader. However for on screen reading i prefer Adobe reader.

This is the first attempt to summarise the geology of Africa by presenting it in an atlas and to synthesise the stratigraphy, tectonics, economic geology, geohazards and geosites of each country and territory of the continent. Furthermore, the digitised geological maps are correlated and harmonised according to the current stratigraphic time table. The atlas aims to contribute to capacity building in African Earth Sciences and to initiate research and economic opportunities by providing a database of basic geological background information.

Structures in contact with fluid flow, whether natural or man-made, are inevitably subject to flow-induced forces and flow-induced vibration: from plant leaves to traffic signs and to more substantial structures, such as bridge decks and heat exchanger tubes. Under certain conditions the vibration may be self-excited, and it is usually referred to as an instability. These instabilities and, more specifically, the conditions under which they arise are of great importance to designers and operators of the systems concerned because of the significant potential to cause damage in the short term. Such flow-induced instabilities are the subject of this book. In particular, the flow-induced instabilities treated in this book are associated with cross-flow, that is, flow normal to the long axis of the structure. The book treats a specific set of problems that are fundamentally and technologically important: galloping, vortex-shedding oscillations under lock-in conditions, and rain-and-wind-induced vibrations, among others. The emphasis throughout is on providing a physical description of the phenomena that is as clear and up-to-date as possible.

Hi everyone!
Is there someone who have a copy of this book "Structural Analysis by Bhatt"?
I have searched the net and haven't found a complete copy of this reference.
Could you please share it to us if you have this interesting ebook.
The objective of this study is to gain insight into mechanisms of soil-structure interaction for buildings adjacent to deep excavations and to find a reliable method to design and monitor deep excavations in urban areas with soft soil conditions. The research focuses on typical Dutch conditions. The main questions are: How can we predict the behaviour of one or more a deep excavation will be constructed? What kind of modelling and/or measurements can be used to predict this effect? This report describes the literature reviewed for this topic and several case studies related to the topic from literature. General damage assessment procedures are also given.
Assessing the response of buildings to excavation-induced deformations involves a combination of geotechnical and structural aspects, such as green field displacements (2D/3D, caused by deep excavations), building behaviour, soil -foundation -building interaction, monitoring techniques and modelling techniques. Each of these topics is described in this study.

I am looking for the following standard - EN 1367-2:2009 Tests for thermal and weathering properties of aggregates - Part 2: Magnesium sulfate test.
If somebody of you have it, please share it.
Thanks in advance.

Does anybody have this book to upload it here for us? I'd apprecciate this much if you can help me.

Hi all, I am looking for a paper, if someone has it or can download it I would be very grateful.
The paper is Belytschko, T., Schwer, L. and Klein, M. J. (1977), Large displacement, transient analysis of space frames. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 11: 65–84.

I'm looking for DIN 4150 standards (Structural vibration - Effects of vibration on structures):
DIN 4150-1 - Part 1: Prediction of vibration parameters
DIN 4150-2 - Part 2: Effects on persons in buildings
DIN 4150-3 - Part 3: Effects on structures
The document contains data for use in the determination and assessment of actions caused vibrations on buildings which have been designed for predominantly stationary loading where data of this nature are not given in other standards or directives. The document gives reference values, adherence to which means that damage in the sense of a reduction in the serviceability of a building will not be expected to occur. Reference values for a simplified, approximated assessment are given for some vibration effects.
I'd apprecciate a lot if someone can share those standards with us here.
Those publications are available in ENG and in GER. It doesn't matter in which language the standards are written - just please post them into corresponding section of the forum (to Non-International Code section)
