  The Design Life of Structures

The Design Life of Structures

[Image: p2hluv6xsydj5k55deo0.jpg]

Info:
Author: G. Somerville
Edition: Illustrated
Publisher: Blackie and Son, 1992
ISBN: 0216931770, 9780203168875
Length: 271 pages
Pdf: 3.1 Mb

The whole area of durability, integrity and quality control of structures is starting to be taken very seriously by the construction industry. Central to this is the design life concept, which looks at the materials used, methods of construction, safety factors, maintenance and repair, and change of use, all from a holistic viewpoint. This new book is based on a recent symposium, where leading experts met to discuss this issue and formulate a strategy. In addition, experts from other industries (e.g. aerospace, nuclear), where the design life concept is well established, provided invaluable insights into the problems and benefits of implementing this approach. In total, thirty short contributions are presented in this book, which represents the present state of the art in this field. These are logically structured into five sections, and at the end of each section there is an additional contribution summarising the dialogue or discussion at the symposium - a way of presenting instant feedback to the ideas presented in the contributions.

  Hydroblasting and Coating of Steel Structures
Posted by: struceng - 10-21-2009, 07:47 AM - Forum: General Books - Replies (2)

Hydroblasting and Coating of Steel Structures

[Image: s19giv1zsgot8ny0969o.jpg]

Info:
Author: Andreas W. Momber
Edition: Illustrated
Publisher: Elsevier, 2003
ISBN: 185617395X, 9781856173957
Length: 205 pages
Pdf: 5.4 Mb

KEY FEATURES:
• This technique is growing in importance.
• The first comprehensive book in this subject.
A practical and comprehensive account of the technology and applications of hydroblasting, a technique used more and more in the preparation of steel and other surfaces.
Steel surfaces will corrode unless they are properly prepared and coated. Such corrosion can have disastrous effects (eg bridge collapse) therefore the preparation of the surface is of major importance.
Due to environmental pressure to move away from grit-blasting, high-pressure water can now be used to prepare surfaces, with few environmental costs.
This book systematically and critically reviews the state of current hydroblasting technology and its applications. The book is essentially practical in nature and is written by an expert in the field.
