Examining the proliferation of reinforced-concrete construction in the United States after 1900, historian Amy E. Slaton considers how scientific approaches and occupations displaced traditionally skilled labor. The technology of concrete buildings—little studied by historians of engineering, architecture, or industry—offers a remarkable case study in the modernization of American production. The use of concrete brought to construction the new procedures and priorities of mass production. These included a comprehensive application of science to commercial enterprise and vast redistributions of skills, opportunities, credit, and risk in the workplace. Reinforced concrete also changed the American landscape as building buyers embraced the architectural uniformity and simplicity to which the technology was best suited.

The present work presents an investigation about the capabilities of limit analysis of rigid block assemblages in the structural assessment of ancient masonry constructions. A review about the basic concepts of limit analysis and previous works in the subject is made. A formulation of limit analysis for materials with non-associated flow rules is adopted in order to represent the non-dilatant friction failure mode in masonry. Two computer tools are developed for two and three dimensional models,respectively. The yield functions proposed are capable to take into account limited compressive stresses.

Hi
I have tried surfing internet to explore my knowledge about making portable software and as a consequence I have done the portable one. nut the problem was HOW ABOUT IF I AM GOING TO MAKE PORTABLE AUTODESK REVIT STRUCTURE 2010 AND AUTODESK ROBOT STRUCUTRAL ANALYSIS, we know that it perfectly works via Revit Extensions do I need also to make the extension portable or there is no remedy for that?
When you google civilea you get description of civilea.forum which reads: "Every things about civil engineering here, all things about software, e-books & codes are here. we provided best place for all world engineering here."
Can I suggest description of forum which reads like: "Everything and anything related to civil engineering can be found here...
Softwares, e-books, codes, manuals and all you can think of is here. We provide the best place for all civil engineers world wide!"
I think that this description has better grammar, but still, I'm not someone whose mother tongue is english, so please some one correct me if I'm wrong in some point.
Understanding Housing Defects, Second Edition
By Duncan Marshall BSc MCIOB MBEng, Derek Worthing BSc Mphil MRICS, Roger Heath FRICS FFB
Publisher: Estates Gazette 2003-08-26 | 348 Pages | ISBN: 0728204177 | PDF | 25 MB
This new edition of Understanding Housing Defects has been extensively revised and includes new and revised graphics, many more photographs, and an extended text. The book is a natural companion to The Construction of Houses (first published in 1990 and now in its 3rd revision). Understanding Housing Defects provides a concise, coherent and comprehensive introduction to the causes, investigation and diagnosis of housing defects.
It is aimed at all those students and practitioners who require a broad understanding of housing defects as part of a wider sphere of academic or professional activity.
The book has three specific objectives, to explain why, and how, defects occur. To enable the reader to recognise and identify building defects and to provide, where appropriate, guidance on their correct diagnosis.
The authors have worked in both public and private sectors and have, between them over 75 years' experience in dealing with housing and general building defects. Currently, they are all lecturers at the University of the West England, where they teach on a variety of undergraduate and post-graduate courses. They are also actively involved in carrying out research and consultancy for a number of property owning organisations throughout the UK.
