CEB Bulletin No. 243
Title: Strategies for Testing and Assessment of Concrete Structures affected by Reinforcement Corrosion
Year: 1998
Pages: 184
ISBN: 978-2-88394-040-6
Abstract: Prepared by a Working Party of the Task Group 5.4 'Assessment, Maintenance and Repair' of CEB Commission 5 'Operation and Use', the report aims to present the currently available strategies for testing and assessment of concrete structures with particular reference to reinforcement corrosion. It deals with preparation activities, routine and in-depth inspections, the assessment procedure coming to proposals for intervention, and gives illustrative examples.

FIB - Design of post-tensioned slabs and foundations
Title: Design of post-tensioned slabs and foundations
Year: 1998
Pages: 44
ISBN: 978-1-874266-41-9
Abstract: In 1980 FIP had published ‘Recommendations for the design of flat slabs in post-tensioned concrete’ (out of print already for many years). Prepared by a Working Group of FIP Commission 3 ‘Practical Design’, these new recommendations now represent an update of the previously published. Considering new codes and especially the CEB-FIP Model Code 1990, they address post-tensioned flat slabs and foundation rafts using either bonded or unbonded cables.
The document gives information on this subject as a whole but particular attention is given to the structural analysis and prestressing effects, to the ultimate limit state of punching shear and to the serviceability limit state of verification for deflection and crack control. Detailing and construction recommendations are also presented. Two examples, one of a flat slab and one of a foundation raft, illustrate the design of these structures and the application of the present recommendations.
Approved by the former FIP Commission 3 ‘Practical Design’ and the FIP Council, it is hoped that these recommendations will facilitate the correct design of post-tensioned slabs and foundations.

i have tried to design slab using staadpro using plate element for IS:456:2002 but surprizingly it is giving me very high %steel. Slab is of 3.5X3.5 with loaded 10 KN/sq m. For 150mm thick slab it was giving me 16mm dia steel at 100mm c/c. i was shocked to get this... any advise... i do not claim to be good structural engg but still i know slab design via hand calc...
One of the most Usefull Books for Hydrology students and professors It is very costly too

From the Publisher
A unified presentation of the subject, treating fundamental principles, methods, and problems encountered in the field as a whole. All chapters have been extensively rewritten and expanded to keep up with the enormous growth of the subject matter. Nearly all references have been replaced; new ones have been selected on the basis of significance and general availability. Metric units have been employed exclusively. A conversion table for English units is included as an appendix. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The Whole Building Handbook: How to Design Healthy, Efficient and Sustainable Buildings
The Whole Building Handbook: How to Design Healthy, Efficient and Sustainable Buildings
Earthscan Publications Ltd. | March 2010 | ISBN-10: 1844075230 | 702 pages | PDF | 85.5 MB
This book is a compendium of all the issues and strategies that architects need to understand to design and construct sustainable buildings for a sustainable society. The authors move beyond the current definition of sustainability in architecture, which tends to focus on energy-efficiency, to include guidance for architecture that promotes social cohesion, personal health, renewable energy sources, water and waste recycling systems, permaculture, energy conservation--and crucially, buildings in relation to their place.

Writing in engineering: A guide to communicating
Mavrow, C. (1994).
McGraw-Hill Ryerson | ISBN 0075517159 | 198 p. | PDF (OCR) | 8.77 MB
Writing is an increasingly large part of the engineering process, with many professional engineers spending over 60 percent of their time writing letters, memos, proposals, reports, and specification documents. The trend in many government and engineering firms now is to hire technicians for the technical work. Fifteen years ago, one city that had a population of 100,000 people employed eight engineers. It now employs three, and 20 certified technicians.
Writing is a skill that, like any other, can be developed. When you are learning to ski, you can watch the Olympic slalom, you might take lessons and have the pros tell you to “plant your pole, unweight, and turn,” the instructor might demonstration a mogul for you—and then you can put on the skis and fall flat on your face. Before you master skiing, you have to slide down the hill a few times, trying to plant the pole and bend the knees, learning to turn and stop. This is a good analogy for writing: you need to learn the basics, understand what is expected, and then write and rewrite until the words run effortlessly on the page.
Some experts say that one can't write well—cannot write clean, coherent English—without reading well-written books, books that have been written with “force and freshness.” Yes, good reading is important (and some good reports by experienced engineers are works of art), but most of us have read Shakespeare and we still do not write well. Attention, care, concentration, observation, effort, revision—and practice, practice, practice—will steadily improve your skill in technical writing.
This book is based on the premise that with knowledge of some basic writing principles, and how they apply to the special writing tasks that engineers are called upon to perform, engineering students can prepare themselves for the responsibilities they will face in this field today.
