Expansive Soils: Advances in Characterization and Treatment
By Amer Ali Al-Rawas, Mattheus F. A. Goosen
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
Number Of Pages: 550

With their ability to swell and shrink in relation to the environment’s water content, expansive soils are considered as geonatural hazards and form a challenge to geotechnical and construction engineers. Addressing the problems associated with these soils, this book provides expert contributions on the recent advances in the characteristics and treatment of expansive soils. Beginning with an overview on the nature, identification, and classification of expansive soils, it confronts current issues including volume change characteristics; site characterization; the measurement and assessment of soil swelling potential; suction; lime and cement stabilization and other stabilization methods.

Structural Vibration, Analysis and Damping
By C. Beards
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
Number Of Pages: 276
Publication Date: 1996-05-31
ISBN / ASIN: 0340645806
Many structures suffer from unwanted vibrations and, although careful analysis at the design stage can minimise these, the vibration levels of many structures are excessive. In this book the entire range of methods of control, both by damping and by excitation, is described in a single volume.
Clear and concise descriptions are given of the techniques for mathematically modelling real structures so that the equations which describe the motion of such structures can be derived. This approach leads to a comprehensive discussion of the analysis of typical models of vibrating structures excited by a range of periodic and random inputs. Careful consideration is also given to the sources of excitation, both internal and external, and the effects of isolation and transmissability. A major part of the book is devoted to damping of structures and many sources of damping are considered, as are the ways of changing damping using both active and passive methods. The numerous worked examples liberally distributed throughout the text, amplify and clarify the theoretical analysis presented. Particular attention is paid to the meaning and interpretation of results, further enhancing the scope and applications of analysis. Over 80 problems are included with answers and worked solutions to most. This book provides engineering students, designers and professional engineers with a detailed insight into the principles involved in the analysis and damping of structural vibration while presenting a sound theoretical basis for further study

The History of the Theory of Structures: From Arch Analysis to Computational Mechanics

The History of the Theory of Structures: From Arch Analysis to Computational Mechanics: Karl-Eugen Kurrer
Wiley | ISBN: 3433018383 | 2008-06-23 | PDF (OCR) | 848 pages | 22.10 Mb
This book traces the evolution of theory of structures and strength of materials - the development of the geometrical thinking of the Renaissance to become the fundamental engineering science discipline rooted in classical mechanics. Starting with the strength experiments of Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo, the author examines the emergence of individual structural analysis methods and their formation into theory of structures in the 19th century. For the first time, a book of this kind outlines the development from classical theory of structures to the structural mechanics and computational mechanics of the 20th century. In doing so, the author has managed to bring alive the differences between the players with respect to their engineering and scientific profiles and personalities, and to create an understanding for the social context. Brief insights into common methods of analysis, backed up by historical details, help the reader gain an understanding of the history of structural mechanics from the standpoint of modern engineering practice. A total of 175 brief biographies of important personalities in civil and structural engineering as well as structural mechanics plus an extensive bibliography round off this work.

Using a design-oriented approach that addresses geotechnical, structural, and construction aspects of foundation engineering, this book explores practical methods of designing structural foundations, while emphasizing and explaining how and why foundations behave the way they do. It explains the theories and experimental data behind the design procedures, and how to apply this information to real-world problems. Covers general principles (performance requirements, soil mechanics, site exploration and characterization); shallow foundations (bearing capacity, settlement, spread footings — geotechnical design, spread footings — structural design, mats); deep foundations (axial load capacity — full-scale load tests, static methods, dynamic methods; lateral load capacity; structural design); special topics (foundations on weak and compressible soils, foundation on expansive soils, foundations on collapsible soils); and earth retaining structures (lateral earth pressures, cantilever retaining walls, sheet pile walls, soldier pile walls, internally stabilized earth retaining structures). For geotechnical engineers, soils engineers, structural engineers, and foundation engineers.

Structural and Stress Analysis, Second Edition
By T. H. G. Megson
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
Number Of Pages: 744
Publication Date: 2005-04-15
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0750662212
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780750662215
Structural analysis is the corner stone of civil engineering and all students must obtain a thorough understanding of the techniques available to analyse and predict stress in any structure.
The new edition of this popular textbook provides the student with a comprehensive introduction to all types of structural and stress analysis, starting from an explanation of the basic principles of statics, normal and shear force and bending moments and torsion. Building on the success of the first edition, new material on structural dynamics and finite element method has been included.
