Bridge Rehabilitation
by Wojciech Radomski (Warsaw University of Technology, Poland)
492pp
Pub. date: Oct 2002
ISBN: 978-1-86094-122-1
1-86094-122-2
In the last two decades, the rapid deterioration of bridge structures has become a serious technical and economical problem in many countries, including highly developed ones. Therefore, bridge rehabilitation has also become a very essential factor (sometimes even a decisive one) in contemporary bridge engineering. The book covers in synthetic form nearly all the most important problems concerning bridge rehabilitation, such as bridge superstructure and substructure, the typical damage observed in bridges as well as the assessment and evaluation techniques of their technical condition. The book is intended mainly for postgraduate university students. Therefore, all the problems are mostly presented in their physical, chemical and technical as well as economical aspects. The relevant requirements are treated as objective ones, i.e. irrespective of the rules, standards, regulations or guidelines particular to any country. This approach to the subject gives the book a more general character and therefore makes it a useful text for most civil engineering courses.
Contents:
* Introduction, Terminology and General Scope
* Overview of Needs
* Typical Damage of Bridge Structures
* Assessment and Evaluation Techniques
* Some General Problems of Bridge Rehabilitation
* Rehabilitation of Concrete Bridge Superstructures
* Rehabilitation of Steel and Composite Bridge Superstructures
* Rehabilitation of Bridge Deck and Bearings
* Rehabilitation of Bridge Substructure
* Modernization of Concrete, Steel and Composite Bridges

Product Description
Review
'... offers many new ideas in offshore engineering and technology, which could be used to enhance design and operation of maritime systems. ... beneficial for both academic researchers and industrial analysts. It serves as a good reference for marine/offshore safety engineers within the industry and as an excellent textbook by undergraduates or postgraduates in marine/offshore engineering subjects. There are several useful sections that briefly introduce the reader to the ship-shaped offshore installations and set the mood by defining the general design and building regimes. For more advanced readers, the technical chapters plunge deep into the root of problems of designing, building and operating ship-shaped offshore installations.' Measurement + Control
'Ship-shaped Offshore Installations is an excellent text and reference book written by recognised marine structural experts who are long-standing members of SNAME. ... This book is very timely and sure to become a must-have for professionals involved in offshore work. ... [It] is highly recommended and bridges existing gaps in the published works on FPSs. My thanks to the authors for writing a well documented, authoritative book on this complex subject.' Gautam J. Adhia, SNAME News
'The book presents an excellent opportunity for engineers and students alike, to appreciate the issues surrounding design, building and operation of ship-shaped offshore installations. It offers many new ideas in offshore engineering and technology, which could be used to enhance design and operation of maritime systems.' Measurement + Control
Product Description
Ship-shaped offshore units are some of the more economical systems for the development of offshore oil and gas, and are often preferred in marginal fields. These systems are especially attractive to develop oil and gas fields in deep and ultra-deep water areas and remote locations away from existing pipeline infrastructures. Recently, the ship-shaped offshore units have been applied to near shore oil and gas terminals. It is an ideal text and reference on the technologies for design, building and operation of ship-shaped offshore units, within inevitable space (and time) requirements. The book includes a range of topics, from the initial contracting strategy to decommissioning and the removal of the units concerned. Coverage includes both fundamental theory and principles of the individual technologies. This book will be useful to students who will be approaching the subject for the first time as well as designers working on the engineering for ship-shaped offshore installations.

All civil engineering and construction projects require some sort of solid foundation, but ground conditions bring some degree of uncertainty to every project. Dealing properly with uncertainty over ground conditions can make the difference between the commercial success and failure of a project.
With margins in the construction industry at historic lows, and with costs of failing to accurately predict ground conditions becoming increasingly high, the importance of proper management of the variety of ground-related risk is paramount.
Risk management has demonstrated its value in many industries, but the full lessons of that experience has not yet fully reached all aspects of civil engineering. In particular the importance of individuals and their own awareness of risks and how to manage them has often been overlooked.
