Prescriptive Method for Insulating Concrete Forms in Residential Construction - 2nd Ed.
Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs) represent a category of building product that is receiving greater attention among builders. ICFs are hollow blocks, planks, or panels that can be constructed of rigid foam plastic insulation, a composite of cement and foam insulation, a composite of cement and wood chips, or other suitable insulation material that has the ability to act as forms for cast-in-place concrete walls. The forms typically remain in place after the concrete has cured, providing wellinsulated construction. ICFs continue to gain popularity because they are competitive with lightframe construction and offer a strong, durable, and energy-efficient wall system for housing.
The second edition expands on the first edition by adding provisions for Seismic Design Categories C and D (Seismic Zones 3 and 4). Wall construction requirements utilizing Grade 60 reinforcing steel and concrete mixes with selected compressive strengths are included. In addition, tables throughout the document have been simplified as a result of additional evaluation and user input.

Edit any Scanned document without loseing anything. Layout and quality will remain as in the original document. The program will NOT try to recognize the Text, instead it will free the characters and pictures from the background and place it as free moveable objects over the background. You can open existing documents (bitmap pictures) or scan new documents. You can then move, delete, copy and paste Text and pictures or add new Text and pictures. You can save the result as bitmap picture or print it. To save the document in the internal file format SCA is also an option. In this format all objects wll be saved in it's own layer without melting again with the background.

The main objective with this literature survey is to elucidate the state of the art of internal erosion in embankment dams in order to be able to formulate a research program for numerical modelling of internal erosion in a physically sound manner. Since these processes normally are localised to specific zones in a dam, the ordinary continuum approach frequently utilised in soil modelling will not, by itself, be successful. The plan of the research group is therefore to treat internal erosion numerically as a type of localisation and describe the constitutive behaviour with micromechanical models in localised zones.
In the next step, the internal erosion model developed will be implemented in a mathematical consistent fashion in a continuum model, based on e.g. the finite element method. In such software, ordinary computations of stresses, strains, deformations and pore pressures in an embankment dam can be performed; results which possible lead to conclusions about the initiation of internal erosion processes. When internal erosion is initiated, the micromechanical models will describe these processes in localised zones.

Groundwater Age is the first book of its kind that incorporates and synthesizes the state-of-the-art knowledge about the business of groundwater dating - including historical evelopment, principles, applications, various methods, and likely future progress in the concept. It is a well-organized, advanced, clearly written resource for all the professionals, scientists, graduate students, consultants, and water sector managers who deal with groundwater and who seek a comprehensive treatment of the subject of groundwater age.
