Hi everyone,
I'm looking for these titles in electronic form:
1. Clarke, L.: Concrete Bridge Design to BS 5400
2. Humbley, E. C.: Bridges Deck Behaviour
Also, I'm trying to find the following article from 1968:
1. Wood, R. H. [1968]: The Reinforcement of Slabs in Accordance with a Pre-determined Field of Moments, Concrete, February 1968.
Actually, I'm currently dealing with Wood-Armer equations optimizing skewed reinforcement layout in RC slabs. Any other literature suggestion would be welcome.

Although, there are now a large number of computer programmes for solving all sorts of foundation design problems, the need to check these outputs by 'hand-calculation' has become vitally important. This book concentrates on getting the fundamentals right and then using them in practical applications. The book is illustrated with numerous worked examples and with quick-reference tables and charts. In this new edition, the original highly acclaimed text has been extended and updated, and now includes major new sections on short term and long term stability, critical state interpretation of peak strength, seismic methods for measuring ground stiffness in situ, and offshore pile design: total stress and effective stress approaches.

J. P. Den Hartog– Strength of Materials
Dover Publications (1961-06-01) | ISBN: 0486607550 | 323 pages | DjVu | 3,9 Mb
This full, clear treatment of basic material (tension, torsion, bending, etc.) also features advanced material on engineering methods and applications, in addition to 350 problems and answers.
Summary: Probably the best book on strength of materials
Rating: 5
This is the best book on mechanics of materials I have come across. Much more mathematical rigor than similar books by Gere and others. I read this book as an undergraduate and it put me at the top of the class. Of particular note is the Myosotis Method in the section on deflection of beams. This extremely useful method is very powerful, and has been abondonded in most new books becuase of computer software now available. Also has the best treatment of Castigliano Theorem. This book is a must have for any engineer concerned with materials. If your looking for a more advanced book, Advanced Strength of Materials, by the same offer is also very good, but outdated. It does have a very good treatment of shell theory. Better than a good amount of the books on theoretical elasticity that I own. Simply; good author; good book.

Harold Kerzner, Frank P. Saladis, International Institute for Learning, "Value-Driven Project Management"
Wiley | 2009-08-17 | ISBN: 0470500808 | 288 pages | PDF | 3,2 MB
In the traditional view of project management, if a project manager completed a project and had adhered to the triple constraints of time, cost, and performance, the project was considered a success. Today, in the eyes of the customer and the parent or sponsoring company, if a completed project did not deliver its anticipated value, it would be seen as a failure.
Today's changing economic climate, marked by an increasingly competitive global environment, is driving project managers to become more business oriented. Projects must now be viewed from a strategic perspective within the context of a business or enterprise that needs to provide value to both the customer and the organization itself. As a result, project managers are now required to possess the skills to complete a project within certain specifications, and also know how to create and deliver value.
Responding to the needs of today's project managers, Value-Driven Project Management begins by changing the paradigm of project management. Rather than judge the success of a project from the perspectives of time, budget, and quality, the authors demonstrate why success is only achieved when planned business values are met, including:
# Internal value
# Financial value
# Future value
# Customer-related value
The authors also offer best practices that allow you and your organization to create additional value in efficiency, customer satisfaction, and enhanced products and services. Finally, the book helps you incorporate value into clearly defined business objectives and "sell" the value-driven process to executives.
Throughout the book, helpful illustrations clarify complex concepts and processes.
Assigning valuable resources to projects that don't provide some tangible form of value to the organization and to the client is poor management and poor decision-making. On the other hand, selecting and implementing projects that will deliver value and an acceptable return on investment is effective management and decision-making, but is very challenging, especially when a project may not provide its target value for years to come. With Value-Driven Project Management in hand, you'll discover the tools you need to ensure that projects deliver true value upon their completion.

BS 8110-1997, ACI 318-2000 and IS 456-2000 Codes provide methods for calculating the
short-term deflection, deflection due to Creep effects and Shrinkage effects for beams and oneway
slabs. Though the codes are giving the provision for two-way slabs, as span to depth ratio
for deflection control, much variation exists among them. Deflection calculation with creep
and shrinkage effects is not included for two way slabs
