A State-of-the-Art Guide to the Mechanics of Asphalt Concrete
Mechanics of Asphalt systematically covers both the fundamentals and most recent developments in applying rational mechanics, microstructure characterization methods, and numerical tools to understand the behavior of asphalt concrete (AC). The book describes the essential mathematics, mechanics, and numerical techniques required for comprehending advanced modeling and simulation of asphalt materials and asphalt pavements. Filled with detailed illustrations, this authoritative volume provides rational mechanisms to guide the development of best practices in mix design, construction methods, and performance evaluation of asphalt concrete.
Mechanics of Asphalt covers:
* Fundamentals for mathematics and continuum mechanics
* Mechanical properties of constituents, including binder, aggregates, mastics, and mixtures
* Microstructure characterization
* Experimental methods to characterize the heterogeneous strain field
* Mixture theory and micromechanics applications
* Fundamentals of phenomenological models
* Multiscale modeling and moisture damage
* Models for asphalt concrete, including viscoplasticity, viscoplasticity with damage, disturbed state mechanics model, and fatigue failure criteria
* Finite element method, boundary element method, and discrete element method
* Digital specimen and digital test-integration of microstructure and simulation
* Simulation of asphalt compaction
* Characterization and modeling of anisotropic properties of asphalt concrete

does anybody have the latest 2010 - 30th edition of AASHTO STANDARD SPECIFICATION FOR TRANSPORTATION MATERIALS AND METHODS OF SAMPLING AND TESTING? please share.
Illustrated Design Of Reinforced Concrete Buildings
Author: Shah V. L & Karve S. R
ISBN: 819037172X
ISBN-13: 9788190371728, 978-8190371728
Binding: Paperback
Publishing Date: 2008

The Book Presents the fundamentals of Limit state theory proceeded by comprehensive design of building.
Three projects have been included, illustrating three different types of buildings
A single story public building designed in detail from first principles in chapter 6.
A public building having regular layout and which can be divide into a number of similar vertical plan frames, has been illustrated in chapter 7.
This book primarily deals with design of reinforced concrete buildings. The first three chapters covers the approach to structural plannnings, properties of the concrete cement, critical load combinations and fundamental aspects of residential/office buildings. There are chapters dealing with Limit State Theory, Design of residential buildings, etc.

Moderator note:
Whole info added, cover image added, whole thread redesigned using CivilEA Post Generator and moved from BAD section to corresponding section.
Provides a mathematically rigorous, yet readily accessible treatment of applications of Laplace transforms. Includes the Dirac delta function given a completely justifiable treatment in the context of the Riemann-Stieltjes integral.

I would like to take part in the engineer's day held in college , but the fact is that I'm a first year civil engineer student. Therefore , as a civil engineers what are the activities or the project I can prepare ?
Thanks for reading,
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This book presents an updated treatment of the dynamics of particles and particle systems suitable for students preparing for advanced study of physics and closely related fields, such as astronomy and the applied engineering sciences. Compared to older books on this subject, the mathematical treatment has been updated for the study of more advanced topics in quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and nonlinear and orbital mechanics. The text begins with a review of the principles of classical Newtonian dynamics of particles and particle systems and proceeds to show how these principles are modified and extended by developments in the field. The text ends with the unification of space and time given by the Special Theory of Relativity. In addition, Hamiltonian dynamics and the concept of phase space are introduced early on. This allows integration of the concepts of chaos and other nonlinear effects into the main flow of the text. The role of symmetries and the underlying geometric structure of space-time is a key theme. In the latter chapters, the connection between classical and quantum mechanics is examined in some detail.

This book entitled “Characterization of Corrosion Products on Steel Surfaces” is published as the seventh volume in the series of “Advances in Materials Research” edited by Professors Yoshio Waseda and Shigeru Suzuki. The book is composed of twelve chapters, the contents of which together try both to solve the currently important basic problems in corrosion and to contribute
to the steel making industries in the realization of substantially better process engineering. It will contribute to society worldwide “for preventing environmental degradation” which the editors stressed as the subtitle of the book.
The book contains recent high level research results starting from the fundamental mechanism of corrosion to various measurement tools which are used for characterization to reveal the structures of corrosion products both statically and dynamically. As series editor, I would like to thank Dr. Claus Aschelon of Springer-Verlag, who has always had interest in and kindly taken care of our research activity by encouraging publication in this series of books.
