Coastal Engineering: Process, Theory and Design Practice
Author: A. Chadwick | Size: 5.75 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Taylor and Francis | Year: 2004 | pages: 416 | ISBN: 0415268419 & 9780415268417
The United Nations estimate that by 2004, in excess of 75% of the world's population will live within the coastal zone. These regions are therefore of critical importance to a majority of the world's citizens. The coastal zone provides important economic, transport, residential and recreational functions, all of which depend upon its physical characteristics, appealing landscape, cultural heritage, natural resources and rich marine and terrestrial biodiversity. This resource is thus the foundation for the well being and economic viability of present and future generations of coastal zone residents The pressure on coastal environments is also being exacerbated by rapid changes in global climate. The value of the coastal zone to humanity, and the enormous pressure on it, provide strong incentives for a greater scientific understanding which can ensure effective coastal engineering practice and efficient and sustainable management.
Coastal Engineering: Processes, Theory and Design Practice is the only book providing a thorough introduction to all aspects of coastal processes, morphology and design of coastal defences. The use of detailed and state-of-the art modelling techniques are an important theme of this book, and there are numerous case studies showing actual examples where mathematical modelling has been applied through engineering judgement.
With thorough coverage of the theory, and practical demonstration of the applications, Coastal Engineering: Processes, Theory and Design Practice is a must have for all students and engineers working in coastal management and engineering.

Dear ALL
this the best thing I found to introduce to my friends in respected CIVILEA FORUM
I hope from my heart that this post is not duplicated
this is a great demonstration group ( power point ) of the Steel Design fundamentals
every one who is interested in Steel field should know and learn it well
and I hope from moderators to stick this post for a littel time to be viewed for all
best regards

BRE Building Elements Walls, windows and doors Performance, diagnosis, maintenance, repair and the avoidance of defects
Author: R C de Vekey, H W Harrison | Size: 8.92 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: IHS BRE press | Year: 1998 | pages: 302 | ISBN: 186081235X
This third book in the BRE Building Elements series considers the main vertical elements of buildings, both external (including walls, windows and doors) and internal (including separating walls, partitions and internal doors). It deals in outline with the performance requirements of the spaces from which the required performances of the walls are derived, and also, in principle, with the achieved performances and deficiencies of the fabric over the whole age range of the national building stock. This book is addressed primarily to building surveyors and other professionals performing similar functions, such as architects and builders, who maintain, repair, extend and renew the national building stock. It will also find application in the education field, where lecturers can find indication of where the construction syllabus needs attention. Statistics are given of BRE Advisory Service investigations of walls by type of defect and by type of building. 308 pages.

BRE Building Elements Floors and flooring Performance, diagnosis, maintenance, repair and the avoidance of defects
Author: P W Pye, H W Harrison | Size: 12.65 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: IHS BRE press | Year: 2003 | pages: 313 | ISBN: 1860816312
Revised edition (2003) - Floors and flooring describes the materials and production methods and criteria which are used in the construction of these major elements of buildings. A more specific purpose is to draw the attention of readers to the features of floors and flooring which ensure good performance, and to the things that go wrong so that they can be avoided. Drawing from BRE experience, this book provides the building professional with a checklist of points of concern, and where to obtain further information and advice. Particular effort has been given to providing the reader with visual illustrations where they will enhance points made in the text: over 200 photographs and 170 drawings of floors and floor construction details; also case studies, feature panels and checklists. A surveyor’s inspection list appears at the end of each of the chapters on floor types and coverings. Includes: Appendix A How to identify less recognisable floors and their substrates; Appendix B How to choose a flooring, plus 10 pages of references and further reading. 310 pages.

Description :
This book takes a fresh, student-oriented approach to teaching the material covered in the senior- and first-year graduate-level matrix structural analysis courses taken by civil engineering majors. Unlike traditional texts for this course that are difficult to read, Kassimali takes special care to provide understandable and exceptionally clear explanations of concepts, step-by-step procedures for analysis, flowcharts, and interesting and modern examples, producing a technically and mathematically accurate presentation of the subject.
