A comprehensive, state-of-the-art guide to pavement design and materials
With innovations ranging from the advent of Superpave™, the data generated by the Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) project, to the recent release of the Mechanistic-Empirical pavement design guide developed under NCHRP Study 1-37A, the field of pavement engineering is experiencing significant development. Pavement Design and Materials is a practical reference for both students and practicing engineers that explores all the aspects of pavement engineering, including materials, analysis, design, evaluation, and economic analysis.
Historically, numerous techniques have been applied by a multitude of jurisdictions dealing with roadway pavements. This book focuses on the best-established, currently applicable techniques available.
Pavement Design and Materials offers complete coverage of:
* The characterization of traffic input
* The characterization of pavement bases/subgrades and aggregates
* Asphalt binder and asphalt concrete characterization
* Portland cement and concrete characterization
* Analysis of flexible and rigid pavements
* Pavement evaluation
* Environmental effects on pavements
* The design of flexible and rigid pavements
* Pavement rehabilitation
* Economic analysis of alternative pavement designs
The coverage is accompanied by suggestions for software for implementing various analytical techniques described in these chapters.

This text is intended for the concerned reader - whether engineer, architect, builder, or student - who wants to know more about why and how the parts of concrete buildings move and change shape, and how these changes can be controlled. Temperature and moisture changes are always at work, changing the length, width, and thickness of concrete, masonry, and other building materials. Gravity pulls, bends, and twists the parts of a building as do wind, rain, snow, and earthquake. Chemical actions sometimes occur and cause movements that must be anticipated. These individual movements are minute, but they can have noticeable effects as the building adjusts itself into balance with its environment. When they are recognized and understood, they are easier to cope with. Although the causes of the movements, fractures, and distress encountered in buildings can be complex, the remedies are usually quite simple. Ways are shown for controlling these movements within the state of the art. If such preventive measures are included in the planning stages, the builder as well as the user can have confidence that the building will be attractive, comfortable, and safe.

Product Description:
Claims in construction contracts are on the increase. As more emphasis is put on time and money, many contracts get off to a bad start because of lack of pre-planning or just bad advice on the method of procurement of form of contract to be used. Both the initiator and recipient of claims are often partially responsible for claim situations escalating into expensive disputes. Many disputes can be avoided or settled amicably if the parties to them recognise the fundamental causes of claims and how they should be addressed. This book confronts all of the difficult problems that arise in claims situations in the UK and internationally. Extensive reference to UK and international case law and a systematic approach to various types of claims assisted by helpful and explanatory diagrams makes this book second to none as a 'trouble shooting' guide to presentation of, response to, and negotiation and settlement of claims. In addition to the general principles of law and contract in the UK and internationally and how they relate to construction claims, there are a number of examples which are specific to a wide range of UK, international and foreign forms of contract. The latest FIDIC international forms of contract and their problems are featured and some important pitfalls and comparisons with the Engineering and Construction Contract (NEC) add a new dimension to this edition. The author's extensive experience of the legal and practical aspects of construction law and claims in over 30 countries with diverse laws and legal codes is evident in this book. It is essential reading for those wishing to fully understand this important field so that they are better prepared to deal with the problems which arise with confidence and success. A graduate of the University of Aston, Reg Thomas has extensive experience in many aspects of construction in the UK and internationally. He has held senior posts in lecturing in Jamaica and Hong Kong. He is a former contracts director of the Shui On Group of Companies in Hong Kong. Reg joined James R. Knowles in 1986, where, after a number of years in overseas postings he pioneered the international growth of the company. He organised, supervised and executed a number of complex international construction claims in all sectors of building, shipbuilding and engineering and he earned and international reputation in construction claims and as a lecturer on diverse subjects. Since retiring from James R. Knowles at the end of 1998, Reg has continued to provide consultancy services to the Group and remains a director of a number of the Group's overseas companies.

Product Description:
"Having reached the goal of starting to publish the series of EN Eurocodes, the construction industry needs all possible assistance in applying the codes, and making the necessary transitions from existing national practice. The "Designers' Guides to the Eurocodes" is a very important step in the process, and should facilitate a fast and effective transition to the full and successful adoption of the world's leading construction design standards in the UK and wider. I commend them". -David W Lazenby, CBE Director, British Standards, BSI Chairman of CEN/TC 250, "The Structural Eurocodes" - 1991-1999."EN 1990: Basis of Structural Design" is considered the primary document in the Eurocode suite and establishes for the structural Eurocodes, the principles and requirements for safety and serviceability of structures. More importantly, EN 1990 must be applied whenever the Eurocodes 1 to 9 are used. This designers' guide is one of the first to provide detailed information for using EN 1990. It provides technical information on the background to the Eurocode and explains its relationship to Eurocode 1: Actions on Structures and the material Eurocodes (2-6 and 9), Eurocode 7 for Geotechnical Design and Eurocode 8 for seismic design.The background to the principles and rules is discussed, emphasising the rules which differ from those in existing codes. Worked examples illustrate the use of new procedures. This guide will be essential reading for all those affected by the introduction of the Eurocodes - especially: Civil and Structural engineers; Clients; Code-drafting committees; and, Public authorities. This guide will prove an invaluable resource for structural designers.

Designers' Guide to Eurocode 1: Actions on Bridges: EN 1991-2, EN 1991-1-1, -1-3 to 1-7 and EN 1990 Annex A2: Traffic Loads and Other Actions on Bridges
J.A. Calgaro (Author), M. Tschumi (Author), N. Shetty (Author), H. Gulvanessian (Author)
Product details:
* Hardcover: 256 pages
* Publisher: Thomas Telford Ltd (1 Sep 2007)
* Language English
* ISBN-10: 0727731580
* ISBN-13: 978-0727731586
Product Description:
The design process of a bridge includes several steps. One of the major steps is the determination of actions and combinations of actions. These actions are imposed loads due to traffic (road, pedestrian, railway traffic), climatic actions (wind, snow, thermal actions), actions due to water or soil subsidence, construction loads and accidental actions. Of course, the relevant combinations of actions need to be defined for permanent, transient and accidental design situations. The purpose of this handbook is to help the designer to acquire a good knowledge of the appropriate Eurocodes (EN 1990and EN 1991) and parts of these Eurocodes.

Product Description:
The nature of the loading must first be understood before applying the structural engineering principles set out in the Eurocodes. For this reason this book is meant as a guide to four separate documents, EN1991 Part 1.2, EN1992 Part 1.2, EN1993 Part 1.2 and EN1994 Part 1.2 with reference where appropriate to the Eurocode covering the basis of design, EC06. The fire design procedures for reinforced and prestressed concrete structures are contained in the relevant parts of the code, BS81104,5. However, the structural Eurocodes consider steel, composite and concrete construction in isolation and each material therefore has its own corresponding fire part. In this case, a clause-by-clause examination of the fire parts of the material codes would not be sufficient to allow designers to use these documents. The guide takes the form of an introduction to the procedures required to achieve design solutions for a typical range of structural elements and assemblies. Worked examples are included along with appropriate text to illustrate the use of the Eurocodes for specific design scenarios. As a way of setting the scene for those unfamiliar with the basic principles of structural fire engineering design the next section provides an overview of the regulatory framework and a description of the commonly used methods for ensuring compliance with the regulations.

* Language English
* ISBN-10: 0727731637
* ISBN-13: 978-0727731630
Product Description:
After some 25 years in preparation, the key parts of EN 1993 Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures have now been finalised. "Designers' Guide to EN 1993-1-1" covers many forms of steel construction and provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date set of design guidance currently available. Throughout, this book concentrates on the most commonly encountered aspects of structural steel design, with an emphasis on the situation in buildings. Much of its content is therefore devoted to the provisions of the Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings of EN 1993. This is, however, supplemented by material on loading, joints and cold-formed design.For each of the principal aspects covered, the book provides background to the structural behaviour, explanation of the codified treatment including departure from existing practice (BS 5950), and numerous worked examples. This guide should serve as the primary point of reference for designing steel structures to Eurocode 3. This guide is essential reading for: civil and structural engineers; code-drafting committees; clients; structural-design students; and public authorities; in fact, for everyone who will be affected by the Eurocodes.
