HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE STRUCTURAL DESIGNER’S GUIDE
High Performance Concrete Technology Delivery Team
Introducing . . . the Federal Highway Administration’s
HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE TECHNOLOGY DELIVERY TEAM
Created to implement a mandate of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of
1991 (ISTEA) legislation, the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) High Performance
Concrete Technology Delivery Team (HPC TDT) motivated and helped State DOT’s to build
more economical and durable bridges using high performance concrete. The TDT, created in
1997, assisted 13 States in design and construction of HPC bridges. Hundreds of State, Federal and industry personnel were introduced to HPC technology at workshops and showcases planned by the TDT and hosted by participating DOT’s. Working with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Lead States Team on HPC Implementation, the TDT influenced many additional State DOT’s to try HPC in their highway bridges.
By the time the ISTEA legislation expired, about 25 States had used HPC. Today, the TDT
continues to promote HPC and encourage states to build HPC bridges through the Innovative
Bridge Research & Construction Program (IBRCP) created under the current highway program of TEA-21. HPC is considered an innovative material and projects can be funded under the guidelines of the IBRCP.
Two primary factors led to the rejuvenation of the HPC TDT. In 1998, the FHWA created
Resource Center offices in Atlanta, Baltimore, Olympia Fields (IL), and San Francisco. These
Centers were staffed to bring training, technical expertise and technology transfer specialists
closer to state and local highway agencies. In addition, the TDT was being renewed with a
focus on field delivery of HPC technology. Accordingly, TDT members represent the FHWA
Resource Center; the Division Offices; the Agency’s Headquarters Offices of Bridge and
Pavement Technology; the Office of Infrastructure Research and Development; the Eastern
Federal Lands Highway Division; and various State DOT’s. Recognizing that earlier
technology delivery efforts were the result of key partnerships and coordination, the new TDT also includes representatives from academia and industry.

I have a problem with Maple 13. I am trying to solve a vibration problem with 40x40 and larger matrices. I am using "LinearAlgebra[Determinant]" function for creating the eigenvalues' equation. When the matrix is larger than 30x30 Maple gives an error "object too large". How can I avoid it?

Time Effects in Concrete Structures (Developments in Civil Engineering, Vol 23)
By R. I. Gilbert
Publisher: Elsevier Science Ltd
Number Of Pages: 336
Publication Date: 1988-09
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0444704736
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780444704733
Product Description:
The inability of designers of concrete structures to recognize and quantify the non-linear effects of cracking, creep and shrinkage is a common cause of serviceability failure. Such failures include excessive deflection, camber and/or shortening of members and excessive cracking which may cause aesthetic or durability problems. This book provides practising engineers with practical and usable techniques for predicting the non-linear effects of creep and shrinkage on the in-service behaviour of concrete structures. Both cracked and uncracked reinforced, prestressed, and composite members subjected to sustained loads or sustained deformations are considered. Analytical procedures are developed for the calculation of instantaneous and time-dependent stresses and deformations on cross-sections in both simple and continuous members. Numerous self-contained worked examples which clearly illustrate the analytical procedures are included. A wide variety of practical situations is considered. Listings of microcomputer programs for a number of the analyses are also presented.

Footbridges: Construction, Design, History
By Ursula Baus, Mike Schlaich
Publisher: Birkhäuser Architecture
Number Of Pages: 255
Publication Date: 2007-11-28
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3764381396
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9783764381394
Product Description:
The influence on the interplay of technical progress, imagination and functional variety in footbridges are different from those affecting large-scale bridges. This fact has resulted in an exhaustible variety of distinctive design, as is beautifully illustrated by the selection of footbridges shown in this book. Essays clearly explain the technical aspects and the aesthetic potential of different structure designs.
Footbridges contains detailed presentations of 90 european bridges, with text, comprehensive and detail plans, and photographs taken especially for the volume. With projects by Arup, Jürg Conzett, Foster and Partners, Happold, Schlaich Bergermann and Partners, Wilkinson Eyre, Jiri Strasky and others. The examples are organized chronologically in thematically focused chapters: lightweight bridges, moving bridges, covered bridges, taut-ribbon suspension bridges, arch bridges, etc.
For those whose curiosity is aroused by the insight given into this type of bridge building, a compilation of 120 more footbridges, listed by location, provide a starting point for further investigation.

Metallurgy of Welding
Abington Publishing | 1999 | ISBN: 1855734281 | 464 pages | PDF | 15,5 MB
The new edition of this standard textbook follows its predecessors in providing comprehensive coverage of the key materials and processes for undergraduate and graduate students of metallurgy, as well as those attending specialist welding courses. It is also a source of reference for engineers and metallurgists concerned with joining processes. The text has been revised throughout, and a new chapter has been included dealing with metal/ceramic joining and microwelding. is also increased coverage of the development of steelmaking techniques that affect weldability. "Metallurgy of Welding" covers the joining of metals, both to other metals and to non-metals including ceramics and glasses. The joining processes covered include soldering, brazing, solid-phase welding and fusion welding. The fusion welding of steel is covered in depth, and non-ferrous metals, glasses and ceramics are also considered. A chapter is also devoted to the topic of the service behaviour of weldments. This book should be of interest to senior undergraduate and graduate students and practising engineers in materials engineering and manufacturing production engineering.
