4.0 out of 5 stars Best Book on Prestressed Concrete, September 1, 2007
By
Civil Prof (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Prestressed Concrete Analysis and Design: Fundamentals (Hardcover)
This is the long awaited second edition to his 1st edition from 1982. It's not as clean and concise as his first edition, but it is now the best book on prestressed concrete on the market. It is accurate and thorough. It covers the theory, more rigorous approaches to analysis and design, and simplified methods which are more code based. It covers prestressed concrete design per ACI and AASHTO codes. One downside is that it's long since it covers each topic from multiple angles and becomes a bit difficult to find the information you're looking for. A second downside is that is only covers through the 2002 ACI building code.

Methods of resisting hydrostatic uplift in substructures

Abstract:
Many underground structures are constructed for use as car parks and shops in basements of buildings and as mass rapid transit stations, depressed roadways and civil defense shelters in cities located in coastal areas where the ground is level and the elevations are low, with an attendant high groundwater table. This paper discusses the various methods of resisting hydrostatic uplift. These include the use of tension piles and the installation of a water pressure relief system under the base slab of the basement. A case history in Singapore employing a pressure relief system below a three-level basement is presented.

This guide outlines methods for assessing the acceptability of flaws in all types of structures and
components. Although emphasis is placed on welded fabrications in ferritic and austenitic steels and
aluminium alloys, the procedures developed can be used for analysing flaws in structures made from other
metallic materials and in non-welded components or structures. The methods described can be applied at
the design, fabrication and operational phases of a structure’s life.

Author: John Knight and W.P. Jones | Size: 2.5 MB | Format:PDF | Year: 2004 | pages: 424 | ISBN: 0750657855
Building Services Pocket Book is a unique compendium of essential data, techniques and procedures, best practice, and underpinning knowledge. This makes it an essential tool for engineers involved in the design and day-to-day running of mechanical services in buildings, and a valuable reference for managers, students and engineers in related fields.
This pocket reference gives the reader access to the knowledge and knowhow of the team of professional engineers who wrote the sixteen chapters that cover all aspects of mechanical building services. Topic coverage includes heating systems, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration, fans, ductwork, pipework and plumbing, drainage, and fire protection. The result is a comprehensive guide covering the selection of HVAC systems, and the design process from initial drafts through to implementation.
The second edition builds on the success of this popular guide with references to UK and EU legislation fully updated throughout, and coverage fully in line with the latest CIBSE guides.
* The essential toolkit for design engineers, maintenance engineers and students
* Fully updated edition complies with latest UK and EU legislation
* Key mechanical building services data and procedures in one handy volume
