Structural Wood Design: A Practice-Oriented Approach
To fully understand structural design in wood, it is not sufficient to consider the individual components in isolation. Structural Wood Design: A Practice-Oriented Approach Using the ASD Method offers an integrative approach to structural wood design that considers the design of the individual wood members in the context of the complete wood structure so that all of the structural components and connectors work together in providing strength. Holistic, practical, and code-based, this text provides the reader with knowledge of all the essentials of structural wood design:
Wood structural elements and systems that occur in wood structures
Structural loads—dead, live, snow, wind, and seismic—and how to calculate loads acting on typical wood structures
Glued-laminated lumber and allowable stresses for sawn lumber and Glulam
The design and analysis of joists and girders
Floor vibrations
The design of wood members subjected to axial and bending loads
Roof and floor sheathing and horizontal diaphrams
Exterior wall sheathing and wood shear walls
The design of connections and how to use the connection capacity tables in the NDS code
Several easy-to-use design aids for the preliminary sizing of joists, studs, and columns

Elements of Wavelets for Engineers and Scientists by Dwight F. Mix
Publisher: Wiley-Interscience | September 8, 2003 | ISBN: 0471466174 | Pages: 256 | DJVU | 6.2 MB
Elements of Wavelets for Engineers and Scientists is a guide to wavelets for "the rest of us"-practicing engineers and scientists, nonmathematicians who want to understand and apply such tools as fast Fourier and wavelet transforms. It is carefully designed to help professionals in nonmathematical fields comprehend this very mathematically sophisticated topic and be prepared for further study on a more mathematically rigorous level.
Detailed discussions, worked-out examples, drawings, and drill problems provide step-by-step guidance on fundamental concepts such as vector spaces, metric, norm, inner product, basis, dimension, biorthogonality, and matrices.
Chapters explore . . .
* Functions and transforms
* The sampling theorem
* Multirate processing
* The fast Fourier transform
* The wavelet transform
* QMF filters
* Practical wavelets and filters
. . . as well as many new wavelet applications-image compression, turbulence, and pattern recognition, for instance-that have resulted from recent synergies in fields such as quantum physics and seismic geology.
Elements of Wavelets for Engineers and Scientists is a must for every practicing engineer, scientist, computer programmer, and student needing a practical, top-to-bottom grasp of wavelets.

Computer Analysis & Reinforced Concrete Design of Beams
This project deals with the creation of a computer application that analyzes and designs structural beams. The project also aims at emphasizing the importance of computers in the solution of everyday engineering problems (but not engineering economy ebook).
The program developed analyzes one, two and three-span beams and includes a module for the design of reinforced concrete beams. This program was created using the relatively new Actionscript language.

Long-Life Surfaces for Busy Roads
Publisher: OECD publishing
ISBN: 9282101584
edition 2008
PDF 20,7 mb
186 pages
In most countries, the road network constitutes one of the largest community assets and is predominately government-owned. Road administrations must maintain, operate, improve, replace and preserve this asset while, at the same time, carefully managing the scarce financial and human resources needed to achieve these objectives.

Advanced Finite Element Method in Structural Engineering
Yu-Qiu Long, Song Cen, Zhi-Fei Long,
Springer
2009
ISBN: 364200315X
706 pages
Advanced Finite Element Method in Structural Engineering systematically introduces the research work on the Finite Element Method (FEM), which was completed by Prof. Yu-qiu Long and his research group in the
past 25 years. Seven original theoretical achievements - for instance, the Generalized Conforming Element method, to name one - and their applications in the fields of structural engineering and computational mechanics are discussed in detail. The book also shows the new strategies for avoiding five difficulties that exist in traditional FEM (shear-locking problem of thick plate elements; sensitivity problem to mesh distortion; non-convergence problem of non-conforming elements; accuracy loss problem of stress solutions by displacement-based elements; stress singular point problem) by utilizing foregoing achievements

Response Control and Seismic Isolation of Buildings (Cib Proceedings)
By Masa Higashino
* Publisher: Taylor & Francis
* Number Of Pages: 400
* Publication Date: 2006-10-17
* Binding: Hardcover
Product Description:
Many countries and cities are located in earthquake-prone areas, and effective seismic design has been long been a major issue in structural engineering. Reassuringly, structural response control and seismic isolation have advanced remarkably in recent years following numerous studies internationally. Several major conferences have been held and reports have been written but little has been issued on the application of the technologies to good structural engineering practice. This state of the art report from an internationally-based task group (TG44) of CIB, the international council of building research organizations, presents a highly authoritative guide to the application of innovative technologies on response control and seismic isolation of buildings to practice worldwide.

The Lightweight Treated Soil Method
By Takashi Tsuchida, Kazuhiko Egashira
* Publisher: Taylor & Francis
* Number Of Pages: 109
* Publication Date: 2004-08-15
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 9058096920
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9789058096920
Product Description:
The lightweight treated soil method (LWTS) is a newly developed construction technique within the area of coastal soft ground engineering. In this groundbreaking book, experts Tsuchida and Egashira demonstrate that by using the LWTS method in a soft ground area, the consolidation settlement and the gravity impact of heavy structures can directly be decreased. Based on extensive research and experience, the text offers expert information for dealing with soft ground in the areas of geotechnical and construction engineering. The properties, design and construction techniques of the LWTS method are treated and a number of case studies is presented to illustrate this method in practice.

Theoretical treatments of fracture mechanics abound in the literature. Among the first books to address this vital topic from an applied standpoint was the first edition of Practical Fracture Mechanics in Design. Completely updated and expanded to reflect recent developments in the field, the second edition of this valuable reference concisely reviews all of the fracture modes and design methodologies needed for control and prevention of structural failures in mechanical components. Practical Fracture Mechanics in Design, Second Edition begins with the historical development of the field, which is critical in understanding the origins and purpose of the various methodologies and equations. The book goes on to provide the fundamentals, basic formulas, elementary worked examples, and references with an emphasis on linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). The author also includes case studies and design problems to clarify the concepts and explain their application. New chapters cover experimental methods in fracture, fracture of composite materials, dynamic fracture, and post mortem analysis of fracture surfaces. Providing much more than a simple introduction to fracture mechanics, this critical, authoritative guide supplies easy-to-use and understand tools based on hands-on experience in design, emphasizing practical applications over heavily theoretical, rigorous mathematical derivations.
