Info:
This manual provides general guidelines for use by bridge designers and technicians. It is intended neither to be all inclusive, nor to replace the judgment of the design engineers or detailers. All details are provided as examples only and are not intended to accurately reflect any particular structure. The conventions provided within this manual should assist in producing consistent plans.
The manual will be added to and updated on a periodic basis. Any errors or recommendations should be forwarded to the Director of Bridge Design.
The information in this manual is based on American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO ) Standard and Interim Specifications that have been modified to incorporate Bridge Division standard practices.

Industrial Project Management: Planning, Design, and Construction
info:
Stefano Tonchia " Industrial Project Management: Planning, Design, and Construction "
Springer; 1 edition | September 11, 2008 | English | ISBN : 3540775420 | 230 pages | PDF | 1.5MB
This book describes, in a precise but practical way, the most recent principles and techniques of project management, at the highest international standards, with a fully company-wide, process-based, multi-project approach. It is unique because of the integration of project management fundamentals with the practices of international contracting, which characterize planning, design and construction of large works (such as plants and machinery) in the industrial sectors.

The Effects of Air Pollution on Cultural Heritage
John Watt, Johan Tidblad, Vladimir Kucera, Ron Hamilton,
Springer; 1 edition (September 17, 2009)
English
0387848924
299 pages
PDF 6.98 MB
This book reviews the sources of the air pollutants responsible for building damage and the mechanisms involved. Studies investigating the relationships between pollution concentration (dose) and the resulting damage (response) are described and the latest research findings for dose-response functions are presented.
Trends in pollutant emissions, ambient concentrations and building damage over time are described and future predictions are presented. Methodologies for assessing the extent of the potential problem in a region - the stock at risk - are presented. Procedures for estimating the economic implications are described and the consequences are discussed in detail, because economic factors are important for reaching policy and management decisions at local, national and international scales.
Damage to cultural heritage buildings is an important additional effect which needs to be considered as the standards are revised and the factors which will need to be brought into the assessment are presented.

Integrated Watershed Management: Connecting People to their Land and Water
info:
H. Gregersen, P. Ffolliott, K. Brookes, "Integrated Watershed Management: Connecting People to their Land and Water"
CABI (January 10, 2008) | English | 1845932811 | 216 pages | PDF | 1.54 MB
As human populations expand and demands upon natural resources increase, the need to manage the environments in which people live becomes more important but also more difficult. Land and water management is especially critical as the use of upstream watersheds can drastically affect large numbers of people living in downstream watersheds. An integrated approach that stresses both the importance of participatory planning and the institutional and technical constraints and opportunities is therefore necessary. The institutional and technical context for managing watersheds and river basins, including the involvement of both the public and private sectors, is also examined.
