Since the first edition was published in 1983, Building Surveys has been the core text in its field for students and professionals alike. Covering everything needed for initial inspections such as equipment, know-how and procedures to writing an accurate report, this book is a proven indispensable guide.
It considers all the structural elements required when surveying a property for example, foundations, walls and roofs as well as what to look out for and how to deal with it. Legal considerations and recent cases are used to illustrate good working practice making this a comprehensive text to this important subject.
* Based on real-life experience of professional surveyors
* Covers knowledge, techniques and equipment needed to inspect and report on a range of properties
* Legal and regulatory requirements fully updated and explained including the changed circumstances in relation to the governments Home Information Packs and in particular the relegation of the Home Condition Report to the status of optional, rather than obligatory, part of the pack.
* Claims against surveyors has resulted in the much greater us of action paragraphs in surveyors reports and new to this edition the specimen report in the book has been re-written to reflect this
* Additional colour photographs have been added which improve the readability and look of the book and enhance the text.

Description:
Groundwater is the most important source of domestic, industrial, and agricultural water and also a finite resource. Population growth has created an unprecedented demand for water, with the situation most critical in the developing world, where several million people depend on contaminated groundwater for drinking purposes. Geogenic contaminants, such as arsenic and fluoride at toxic levels, pose major environmental risks and endanger public health. This book is a collection of papers providing a multi-disciplinary overview for scientists and professionals involved in the sustainable development of groundwater resources.

Cable-Supported Bridges - Challenging Technical Limits
The Conference 'Cable-Supported Bridges', Seoul, 12 -14 June 2001, was organised by the Korean Group of IABSE and the Korea Highway Corporation. It attracted 365 participants from 35 countries.
The theme of the conference was introduced by the Keynote Lecturers: S.P. Chang, Korea; J. E. Roberts, USA; J. Combault, France; M.R. Feng, China; M. Kitagawa, Japan, C.K. Kau, Hong Kong. A Special Session on the recently completed Seohae and Yongyong Bridges in Korea was followed by Concurrent Sessions with the following themes:
• Conceptual Design: Case Studies I
• Conceptual Design: Case Studies II
• Trend and Innovative Ideas
• Static Behaviour
• Analysis Methods
• Aerodynamic Aspects
• Dynamics; Seismic Design
• System Identification, Monitoring and Control
• Construction and Maintenance and Operation.
The Keynote Lectures, papers and posters presented have been collected in a report and are a valuable contribution to the design, construction, operation and maintenance of cable-supported bridges.

Cable supported bridges in the form of suspension bridges and cable-stayed bridges are distinguished by their ability to overcome large spans. This book concentrates on the synthesis of cable supported bridges covering both design and construction aspects. The analytical part covers simple methods to quantify the different structural forms and allows a preliminary optimization of the main structure.
Contents:
Evolution of Cable Supported Bridges.
Cables.
Cable System.
Stiffening Girder.
Pylon.
Cable Anchorage and Connection.
Erection.

We have written The Channel Tunnel Story from two distinct perspectives. We make no apology for this, but it does merit a little explanation.
Firstly, we wanted to stress that this was a construction project. This may seem an obvious statement, but with so much of the media coverage focused on the financial and legal aspects of the scheme, we felt there was a danger that the huge achievements of the construction workers—10 of whom were killed on the project—would be forgotten. Of course the financial difficulties and contractual rows form a major part of the book.
But in a small way we tried to redress the balance back towards the construction process hence why the three interviews contained in the book are all with people from contractor Transmanche Link—former chief executive Jack Lemley, UK tunnelling director John King, and tunnel miner Graham Fagg.
Secondly, the book is written from a British perspective. This is partly because we have been covering the project for the best part of the last decade from Britain. But it also reflects that the Channel Tunnel was a far more controversial project in Britain than in France. The political opposition was stronger, the interest was greater—indeed in some
strange way the tunnel seemed to threaten a change in Britain’s whole national identity.
