I think the thread about eurocodes that is marked as important in Codes, Manual & Handbook should be reformulated, because there are several threads that have the latest versions. I think we should compile a complete package of the final eurocodes and make a "clean" thread with that. I can help with some final versions if you need.
Im my opinion, another subject that is "dangerous" to the forum is that when we do a search in google there are several civilea threads as results. I don't know if everyone feels the same, but i think if we could correct this it would be better to the forum....
Richard Klingner, "Masonry Structural Design"
McGraw-Hill Professional | 2010 | ISBN: 007163830X | 588 pages | PDF | 10,3 MB
A Complete Guide to Masonry Materials and Structural Design
Written by the former chair of the Masonry Standards Joint Committee (MSJC), this authoritative volume covers the design of masonry structures using the 2009 International Building Code and the 2008 MSJC Code and Specification.
Masonry Structural Design emphasizes the strength design of masonry and includes allowable-stress provisions. Innovations such as autoclaved aerated concrete masonry (AAC) are also discussed. Real-world case studies featuring a low-rise building with reinforced concrete masonry and a four-story building with clay masonry illustrate the techniques presented in this comprehensive resource.
Coverage includes:
•Basic structural behavior and design of low-rise, bearing wall buildings
•Materials used in masonry construction
•Code basis for structural design of masonry buildings, including seismic design
•Introduction of MSJC treatment of structural design
•Strength design of reinforced and unreinforced masonry elements
•Allowable-stress design of reinforced and unreinforced masonry elements
•Comparison of design by the allowable-stress approach versus the strength approach
•Lateral load analysis of shear wall structure
•Design and detailing of floor and roof diaphragms

This document is a M.Sc. thesis submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Iceland (Háskóli Íslands) for the fulfilment of the award of Master of Science in a Masters program in Environment and Natural Resources.
The study describes the grouting activities carried out at the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBMs) fullface and the Drill and Blast sections of the Kárahnjukar Head Race Tunnel (HRT).
This thesis will generally summarise some of the experiences and lessons learned during the construction of Kárahnjúkar Hydroelectric Head Race Tunnel.

I was wondering how i might better serve the forum. Im in my second year of engineering so i don't have much in the way of experience to offer. I can however take direction well. I was wondering if you might think about having an undergraduate engineer section. For that i have alot of info.

1940 Tacoma Narrows Bridge
Slender, elegant and graceful, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge stretched like a steel ribbon across Puget Sound in 1940. The third longest suspension span in the world opened on July 1st. Only four months later, the great span's short life ended in disaster. "Galloping Gertie," collapsed in a windstorm on November 7,1940.
The bridge became famous as "the most dramatic failure in bridge engineering history." Now, it's also "one of the world's largest man-made reefs." The sunken remains of Galloping Gertie were placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992 to protect her from salvagers.
A dramatic tale of failure and success
The story of the failure of the 1940 Narrows Bridge and the success of the Current Narrows Bridge is a great American saga. When Galloping Gertie splashed into Puget Sound, it created ripple effects across the nation and around the world. The event changed forever how engineers design suspension bridges. Gertie's failure led to the safer suspension spans we use today.
