Towards a New Architect: The guide for architecture students /by Yasmin Shariff,Jane Tankard. After three years of education, architecture students have to start out on their first year of practical training as the initial step in a career in the professional world--all too often without enough clear advice to make sure that their first step is in the right direction.
Towards a New Architect helps you to make the right moves. It explores how to research the opportunities available, prepare your CV, make sure that it gets you noticed for the right reasons and deliver a successful interview as part of a clear plan for building your career as an architect.
For many architecture students the ultimate goal in their career is to set up in practice for themselves. This book sets out the steps to get there successfully and to make the process enjoyable and fulfilling.
* Practical guide to planning a career in architecture
* Learn key skills to help you get the right job at the right firm
* Written to the latest RIBA/ARB guidelines

Author: JOO CHAI WONG | Size: 3,02 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY | Year: 2004 | pages: 140
Micropiles are grouted and small diameter piles that are traditionally used in foundation retrofit. Experimental evidence has indicated that micropiles behave well under seismic loading due to their high flexibility. Moreover, observations in the 1995 Kobe Earthquake indicate a good performance of friction piles under seismic loading. However, the seismic behavior of micropiles is not fully understood due to the limited number of full- and model-scale tests, as well as the limited amount of numerical modeling studies for micropiles.
This project focuses on Finite Element modeling (FEM) of single micropile and micropile groups under both static and dynamic loading. Initially, dynamic FE soil models were developed to conduct site response analyses. The lateral vertical boundaries
of the soil were set up in such a way that the reflection of the arrival waves at the boundaries was avoided. The results of the site response analyses were verified against the well-validated code, SHAKE. Subsequently, FE models for micropiles were developed with two constitutive soil models, i.e. a linear elastic and a bounding surface plasticity model. The micropile/soil interface was modeled either with perfect bonding or with frictional interface elements. For dynamic loading cases, a SDOF (single degree-of-freedom) superstructure was placed on top of the micropiles. Parametric studies were performed for various independent variables including load intensity, non-linearity of soil, and soil stiffness for the static case; and soil non-linearity, input motion intensity, frequency contents of input motion, and the natural period of the superstructure for the dynamic case. The static and dynamic behavior of micropiles were studied via the effects of aforementioned independent variables on the deflections and bending moments along the micropile length.

The book defines architectural and environmental goals for the New Age by analysing recent contemporary work for its responsiveness to important social and environmental issues and comparing it to successful precedents in architecture. It argues that this new sustainable approach to architecture should be recognised as a new development of mainstream architectural history.This practical guide illustrates current social and natural resource issues to aid architects in their approach to future design.
