Marine Concrete Structures: Design, Durability and Performance comprehensively examines structures located in, under, or in close proximity to the sea. A major emphasis of the book is on the long-term performance of marine concrete structures that not only represent major infrastructure investment and provision, but are also required to operate with minimal maintenance.
Chapters review the design, specification, construction, and operation of marine concrete structures, and examine their performance and durability in the marine environment. A number of case studies of significant marine concrete structures from around the world are included which help to reinforce the principles outlined in earlier chapters and provide useful background to these types of structures. The result is a thorough and up-to-date reference source that engineers, researchers, and postgraduate students in this field will find invaluable.
Key Features:
- Covers, in detail, the design, specification, construction, and operation of marine concrete structures
- Examines the properties and performance of concrete in the marine environment
- Provides case studies on significant marine concrete structures and durability-based design from around the world
Readership:
Design and construction engineers working in marine concrete structures; owners and managers of marine concrete structures; and researchers and postgraduate students

A smart civil structure integrates smart materials, sensors, actuators, signal processors, communication networks, power sources, diagonal strategies, control strategies, repair strategies, and life-cycle management strategies. It should function optimally and safely in its environment and maintain structural integrity during strong winds, severe earthquakes, and other extreme events.
This book extends from the fundamentals to the state-of-the-art. It covers the elements of smart civil structures, their integration, and their functions. The elements consist of smart materials, sensors, control devices, signal processors, and communication networks. Integration refers to multi-scale modelling and model updating, multi-type sensor placement, control theory, and collective placement of control devices and sensors. And the functions include structural health monitoring, structural vibration control, structural self-repairing, and structural energy harvesting, with emphasis on their synthesis to form truly smart civil structures. It suits civil engineering students, professionals, and researchers with its blend of principles and practice.

This book covers structural and foundation systems used in high-voltage transmission lines, conductors, insulators, hardware and component assembly. In most developing countries, the term transmission structures usually means lattice steel towers. The term actually includes a vast range of structural systems and configurations of various materials such as wood, steel, concrete and composites. This book discusses those systems along with associated topics such as structure functions and configurations, load cases for design, analysis techniques, structure and foundation modeling, design deliverables and latest advances in the field. In the foundations section, theories related to direct embedment, drilled shaf ts, spread foundations and anchors are discussed in detail.
Featuring worked out design problems for students, the book is aimed at students, practicing engineers, researchers and academics. It contains beneficial information for those involved in the design and maintenance of transmission line structures and foundations. For those in academia, it will be an adequate text-book / design guide for graduate-level courses on the topic. Engineers and managers at utilities and electrical corporations will find the book a useful reference at work.

Hi I am using this forum for a few years now and there is a problem almost everyone has faced which is Dead links because of files deletion from file sharing sites. Most of the time files get deleted within weeks or months and everyone starts asking for reupload. So it would be good if we can have our own torrent server to preserve the files. We can encourage users to keep seeding by keeping track of who is seeding and who is not. I mean giving points for seeding etc. Admin should give a thought about it if it can be done.

Liquefaction is one of the major causes of damage to soils and foundations during earthquakes and is one of the most important aspects in seismic research and the design of foundations. Recent seismic liquefaction-related damage to soils and foundations demonstrates the need for comprehensive hazard analysis of seismic soil liquefaction, in order to reduce related damages and to protect lives. The aim of this book is to examine the disaster mechanisms and deformation evolution of seismic liquefaction and provide references for risk assessment. This book summarizes and generalizes the authors’ research into seismic liquefaction, including mechanisms, deformation characteristics, and comprehensive evaluations. First, macroscopic liquefaction phenomena observed since the beginning of this century are reviewed, and then the liquefaction potential evaluations based on in situ testing are discussed. Then, the studies of the dynamic mechanisms of liquefaction via laboratory and model tests are presented. In addition, numerical simulations for deformation analysis of liquefiable soils are described. Finally, a comprehensive evaluation of liquefaction damage during earthquakes is proposed. This book has seven chapters. Chapter1, the introduction, gives a preliminary presentation of seismic hazards in the world, and liquefaction hazards are detailed using typical earthquake damage examples. After introducing these natural hazards, current major components of liquefaction hazard analysis are reviewed. In Chap. 2, major earthquakes and related liquefaction damage since the beginning of this century worldwide are reviewed in detail. Conventional liquefaction phenomena and macroscopic characteristics (e.g., sand boiling or sand blows, ground cracking or fissures, and lateral spread) are summarized by analyzing observations from various earthquakes. In addition, several new phenomena related to earthquakes in the twenty-first century are introduced. Chapter3 presents liquefaction potential evaluations based on in situ testing, including the standard penetration, cone penetration, dynamic cone penetration or Becker penetration, and wave velocity tests. The next three chapters focus on dynamic behavior and deformation characteristic analyses of seismic liquefaction by laboratory experiment (Chap. 4), centrifugal shaking table testing (Chap. 5), and numerical simulation (Chap.6). In the above, accelerations, excess porewater pressures, and deformations are captured. These are all useful for the prevention and control of geo-disasters. Chapter7 presents a comprehensive evaluation of liquefaction damage during earthquakes in light of performance-based seismic design criteria and reliability analyses.
