Structural Mechanics (College work out series) 1 ed.
Author: Ray Hulse and Jack Cain | Size: 26.25 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan | Year: 1991 | pages: 307 | ISBN: 0333535499
This first edition of Structural Mechanics is an expanded and revised successor to the highly successful first edition, which over the last ten years has become a widely adopted standard first year text. The addition of five new programmes, together with some updating of the original text, now means that this book covers most of the principles of structural mechanics taught in the first and second years of civil engineering degree courses.
· Suitable for independent study or as a compliment to a traditional lecture-based course
· Adopts a programmed learning format, with a focus on student-centred learning
· Contains many examples, carefully constructed questions and graded practical problems, allowing the reader to work at their own pace, and assess their progress whilst gaining confidence in their ability to apply the principles of Structural Mechanics
· Now covering the major part of the Structural Mechanics/Analysis syllabuses of most Civil Engineering degree courses up to second year level.

Dear members and friends:
I would suggest improvements in the "BOOKS REQUEST SECTION" in order to improve the performance of responses to requests.
All of us are proud of the big number of answers in this section! and Fortunately we have seen many requests met, and with great stuff, but mostly with a link only, instead of a complete post (of course with complete description).
The idea would be to create a mechanism to reward (score) for members, responding to a request, make a complete post in the correct section (using the forum PostGenerator) and just creating a link from the request for the full posting.
I think this would drastically increase the quality of the whole forum and would reward the good posts, and we expect to reduce good answers virtually unnoticed by the simplicity of the post (single link)

I'm studying in master of construction management and also finding a thesis topic in this field.
My interested topic are about claim, delay and safety. Could anybody get me some idea or topics? If anyone has another topics that interesting please suggest me that...

Author: Phillip C. Pierce, P.E., Robert L. Brungraber, P.E., Ph.D., Abba Lichtenstein, P.E., Scott Sabol, J.J. Morrell | Size: 8.16 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: FHWA | Year: 2005 | pages: 346
This manual provides guidance to those involved with all aspects of the work, from initial inspection and evaluation, through the engineering of rehabilitation, to construction issues. Broadly speaking, this manual covers general terminology and historic development of covered bridges. The manual also addresses loads, structural analysis, connections, and design issues. The last six chapters contain discussions of evaluation, maintenance, strengthening, and preservation of existing covered bridges; historic considerations of existing structures; and provide a state-of-the-art guide on wood preservatives for covered bridges. Historic preservation requirements as they relate to the U.S. Department of Interior standards for these important and unusual structures also are provided. The appendices include an extensive series of case studies.
The manual focuses on the nuances of the engineering aspects of covered bridges, including some issues not addressed currently by national bridge specifications. The chapter on timber connections provides a comprehensive discussion of covered bridge joinery and represents an important contribution to covered bridge engineering.

The purpose of this manual is to provide general information, criteria and new methodologies for the calculation, project and execution of concrete reinforced works with fibers. They will be presented, therefore, the obtained data of the investigations made by Maccaferri, oriented to the study of the behavior, resistance and efficiency of such structures. The Maccaferri intention is to have new and useful contributions to concrete works reinforced with fibers, helping the consultants and contractors work who act in the segment of structural engineering. For a more detailed analysis on the arguments treated here, we suggest to consult the specific publications that are indicated in the bibliographical references. This manual they will be presented and discussed theoretical foundations, numerical examples of the of the concrete reinforced with fibers applications and details of the use of the Wirand® metallic fibers and Fibromac® plastic fibers. Maccaferri is placed to total disposition, to give solution to problems, cradle in its experience, acquired along more than 100 years of existence in all the world.
This handbook is very useful for everyone who have interests in the field of steel fibers reinforced concrete.

Author: Editors: Johannes Meijer and Arjan der Berg | Size: 3.23 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Nova Science Publishers Inc | Year: 2010 | pages: 435 | ISBN: 9781607416357
Book Description:
Today, environmental protection is among the central matters for natural conservation, public health and sustainable business. With advanced technologies and changing lifestyles, the consumption of resources and release of wastes and pollutants are increasing fast. This requires policy makers to design environmental policies that properly guide the development of new products and business operations. The goal of environmental policy is to limit, slow-down, reduce or eliminate environmental damages caused by industrial and human activities. Environmental issues generally addressed by environmental policy include (but are not limited to) air and water pollution, waste management, ecosystem management, biodiversity protection, and the protection of natural resources, wildlife and endangered species. This book gathers the latest research from around the globe in this field.
