The first complete handbook for every aspect of grouting technology The Practical Handbook of Grouting offers the most comprehensive, single-source reference covering all facets of grouting technology, including its application for control of water movement, strengthening of both soil and rock, and a wide range of structural applications. Richly illustrated with hundreds of informative photographs, graphs, and figures, this handbook provides invaluable advice on all stages of a project from initial investigation and design, through execution, monitoring, and quality control.
Broad coverage in the Practical Handbook of Grouting begins with a general overview of the topic and includes design and quality control issues, injection techniques, and a thorough discussion of drilling and grouting equipment, with practical focus on building custom equipment.
Enriched with real-world insights from the author, the Practical Handbook of Grouting features the latest information on:
* Cementitious and noncementitious grouts, including new admixtures and polymers
* Special construction requirements, including grouting inside structures, underground spaces, in extreme environments, and for emergency response support
* Grouting equipment, including pumps, mixers, agitators, and delivery and monitoring systems
* Pump mechanics, including the advantages and limitations of all pump types
* "The Games Contractors Play," including marketing efforts, proposal trickery, on-the-job issues, and defending bad work
Complete with an extensive bibliography and references, the Practical Handbook of Grouting is a valuable resource for civil, structural, and geotechnical engineers, geologists, contractors, and students in related fields.

Volcanic and Tectonic Hazard Assessment for Nuclear Facilities
VOLCANIC AND TECTONIC HAZARD ASSESSMENT
FOR NUCLEAR FACILITIES
Geoscientists worldwide are developing and applying methodologies to estimate geologic hazards
associated with the siting of nuclear facilities, including nuclear power plants and underground repos-
itories for long-lived radioactive wastes. Understanding such hazards, particularly in the context of
the long functional lifetimes of many nuclear facilities, is a challenging task. This book documents
the current state of the art in volcanic and tectonic hazard assessment for proposed nuclear facilities,
which must be located in areas where the risks associated with geologic processes can be quantified
and are demonstrably low.
Specific topics include overviews of volcanic and tectonic processes, the history of development
of hazard assessment methodologies, description of current techniques for characterizing hazards,
and development of probabilistic methods for estimating risks and uncertainties. Examples of hazard
assessments are drawn from around the world, including the United States, Great Britain, Sweden,
Switzerland and Japan.
This volume will promote much interest and debate about this important topic among research
scientists and graduate students actively developing methods in geologic hazard assessment, geolo-
gists and engineers charged with assessing the safety of nuclear facilities and those with regulatory
responsibility to evaluate such assessments.

Sick Building Syndrome and Related Illness: Prevention and Remediation of Mold Contamination
Sick Building Syndrome and Related Illness: Prevention and Remediation of Mold Contamination
By Walter E. Goldstein
Publisher: CRC Press
Number Of Pages: 256
Publication Date: 2010-08-19
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1439801444
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781439801444
Product Description:
A practical reference, this book focuses on the serious contaminants that cause fungal infestations, commonly referred to as mold. It provides information on how to counter problems as they occur and how to prevent infestations with proactive measures. It includes chapters on biology and metrics that explore how to approach measuring infestaion and understanding it. It also discusses mold and other contaminant particles, remediation, and repair to provide insight on what to do in the event of a problem. The chapter on epidemiology conveys an understanding of the problem and its magnitude and presents aspects of health challenges. It includes a model for mold growth that can be used to prevent such growth.

I've been applying the CEB/EOTA design guides so far and I'm curious to see if there are any differences in the new standards, as the CEB design guides are very conservative.
