Structure-Borne Sound" is a thorough introduction to structural vibrations with emphasis on audio frequencies and the associated radiation of sound. The book presents in-depth discussions of fundamental principles and basic problems, in order to enable the reader to understand and solve his own problems. It includes chapters dealing with measurement and generation of vibrations and sound, various types of structural wave motion, structural damping and its effects, impedances and vibration responses of the important types of structures, as well as with attenuation of vibrations, and sound radiation from structures. For the third edition, the author fundamentally revised and newly organized the contents of the work. Nevertheless, the intention has been to preserve the style of the previous editions, namely to focus on the fundamentals enabling the reader to analyse further problems.

This European Standard:
gives methods and procedures for the assessment of the in-situ compressive strength of concrete in
structures and precast concrete components;
provides principles and guidance for establishing the relationships between test results from indirect test
methods and the in-situ core strength;
provides guidance for the assessment of the in-situ concrete compressive strength in structures or
precast concrete components by indirect or combined methods.
This European Standard does not include the following cases:
where indirect methods are used without correlation to core strength;
assessment based on cores less than 50 mm in diameter;
assessment based on less than 3 cores;
use of microcores.
NOTE In these cases provisions valid in place of use apply.
This European Standard is not for the assessment of conformity of concrete compressive strength in
accordance with EN 206-1 or EN 13369 except as indicated in EN 206-1:2000, 5.5.1.2 or 8.4.

An Introduction to Uncertainty in Measurement Using GUM (Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurements)
Author: L. Kirkup, R. B. Frenkel | Size: 1.7 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Cambridge University Press | Year: 2006 | pages: 249 | ISBN: 9780511190957; 0511190956; 9780521844284; 0521844282; 9780521605793; 0521605792
Measurement shapes scientific theories, characterises improvements in manufacturing processes and promotes efficient commerce. Inherent in measurement is uncertainty, and students in science and engineering need to identify and quantify uncertainties in the measurements they make. This book introduces measurement and uncertainty to second- and third-year students of science and engineering. Its approach relies on the internationally recognised and recommended guidelines for calculating and expressing uncertainty (known by the acronym GUM). The statistics underpinning the methods are considered and worked examples and exercises are spread throughout the text. Detailed case studies based on typical undergraduate experiments are included to reinforce the principles described in the book. This book is also useful to professionals in industry who are expected to know the contemporary methods in this increasingly important area.

Dear Members,
I am opening thread, where you can request papers from the journal "The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings"
I require following paper. Please upload.
Title: Nonlinear dynamic analysis of frames with plastic hinges at arbitrary locations Authors: Z. H. Yan and F. T. K. Au DOI: 10.1002/tal.513 Volume: 19 Issue: 7 Pages: 778–801 Month and Year: November 2010
This European Standard specifies safety requirements for the following non-fixed load lifting attachments for cranes, hoists and manually controlled load manipulating devices:
This standard does not specify the additional requirements for:
- non fixed load lifting attachments in direct contact with foodstuffs or pharmaceuticals requiring a high level of cleanliness for hygiene reasons;
- hazards resulting from handling specific hazardous materials (e.g. explosives, hot molten masses, radiating materials);
- hazards caused by operation in an explosive atmosphere;
- hazards caused by noise;
- electrical hazards;
- hazards due to hydraulic and pneumatic components.
This standard does not cover the hazards related to mechanical strength of structural elements of attachments designed for more than 20 000 lifting cycles.
NOTE The coefficient of utilization specified in clause 5.1.1 ensures that no fatigue verification is needed for less than 20 000 cycles. This is in accordance with the well accepted calculation codes e.g. FEM 1001.
This standard does not cover attachments intended to lift above people.
This standard does not cover slings, ladles, expanding mandrels, buckets, grabs, or grab buckets.
The hazards covered by this European Standard are identified in clause 4.
This European Standard does not cover hazards related to the lifting of persons.
This European Standard is applicable to non-fixed load lifting attachments which are manufactured after the date of approval by CEN of this standard.

This European Standard specifies the requirements, test methods and marking applicable to underground fire hydrants intended for fire fighting purposes:
to be installed in a water distribution system;
in sizes DN 80 and DN 100;
suitable for an allowable operating pressure, PFA, of 10 bar or 16 bar or 25 bar with or without drain facility;
having a vertical or horizontal, flanged, socket or spigot inlet;
with one or two outlets and having outlet/s to national requirements;
of globe (screw down) or gate valve type.
This European Standard also provides for the evaluation of conformity of the underground fire hydrants to the requirements of this European Standard.
This European Standard applies to fire hydrants for potable and non-potable water and for filtered water. Additional requirements may apply for other liquids.
Couplings connected to outlets are outside the scope of this European Standard and should conform to national requirements.
