This well-established and internationally recognized reference is an essential handbook for geotechnical engineers and engineering geologists responsible for designing and constructing piled foundations for building and civil engineering structures. Michael Tomlinson and John Woodward explain the general principles and practice of piling and give a detailed review of the types of pile, piling equipment and methods which are currently used.This also provides students with more comprehensive information on the subject than is generally available in a civil engineering degree course. Chapters on pile design include calculating the resistance of piles to compressive loads, pile groups under compressive loading, piled foundations for resisting uplift and lateral loading and the structural design of piles and pile groups. Piling for marine structures, miscellaneous piling problems (including machinery foundations, underpinning, mining subsidence areas, piling contracts and frozen ground), durability of piled foundations, ground investigations, piling contracts and pile testing are also covered.The fifth edition of this well-established book introduces the 2005 version of Eurocode7, Geotechnical Design, and covers other relevant Eurocodes. It also covers BS 8004 and refers to BS 6349 on maritime structures, and new forms of civil engineering contracts suitable for piling projects are discussed. Highly illustrated, this book includes numerous worked examples to the codes, many of which are based on actual problems encountered.

State-of-the-art coverage of modern computational methods for the analysis and design of beams
Analysis and Design of Elastic Beams presents computer models and applications related to thin-walled beams such as those used in mechanical and aerospace designs, where thin, lightweight structures with high strength are needed. This book will enable readers to compute the cross-sectional properties of individual beams with arbitrary cross-sectional shapes, to apply a general-purpose computer analysis of a complete structure to determine the forces and moments in the individual members, and to use a unified approach for calculating the normal and shear stresses, as well as deflections, for those members' cross sections.
In addition, this book augments a solid foundation in the basic structural design theory of beams by:
* Providing coverage of thin-wall structure analysis and optimization techniques
* Applying computer numerical methods to classical design methods
* Developing computational solutions for cross-sectional properties and stresses using finite element analyses
Including access to an associated Web site with software for the analysis and design of any cross-sectional shape, Analysis and Design of Elastic Beams: Computational Methods is an essential reference for mechanical, aerospace, and civil engineers and designers working in the automotive, ship, and aerospace industries in product and process design, machine design, structural design, and design optimization, as well as students and researchers in these areas.

The Empire State Building (Building America: Then and Now)
By Ronald A. Reis
* Publisher: Chelsea House Publications
* Number Of Pages: 142
* Publication Date: 2009-01-30
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1604130458
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781604130454
Product Description:
It was to be a structure like no other - the largest and tallest skyscraper in the world. Initial plans for the Empire State Building called for an Art Deco masterwork to rise 1,000 feet, with 80 stories of rental space. The high-rise was to completely fill the 84,000-square-foot site of the former Waldorf-Astoria, then New York's most opulent hotel. The Empire State Building would, hopefully, accelerate Midtown's stride toward commercial prominence, pulling more business uptown. Built in the early years of the Great Depression, during which one out of four New Yorkers was out of work, the Empire State Building's construction was thought by many to be a foolish undertaking. Yet, it was completed under budget and ahead of schedule, and the new commercial colossus would stand to see a new day dawning - for New York, for America, and for the world.

An Introduction to Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis
By J. N. Reddy
* Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
* Number Of Pages: 488
* Publication Date: 2004-05-11
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 019852529X
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780198525295
* Binding: Hardcover
Book Description:
This book presents the theory and computer implementation of the finite element method as applied to nonlinear problems of heat transfer and similar field problems, fluid mechanics (flows of incompressible fluids), and solid mechanics (elasticity, beams and plates). Both geometric as well as material nonlinearities are considered, and static and transient (i.e. time-dependent) responses are studied. Although there exist a number of books on nonlinear finite elements that serve as good references for engineers who are familiar with the subject and wish to learn advanced topics or the latest developments, there is currently no book which is suitable as a textbook for a first course on nonlinear finite element analysis. This book fills the void in the market, providing a clear understanding of the concepts of nonlinear finite element analyses through detailed theoretical formulations and computer implementation steps, examples and exercises. In addition, the book serves as a prelude to more advanced books on the subject.

Synopsis:
Miozzo and Dewick, lecturers in innovation studies and technology management, respectively, at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology, UK, deal with questions in innovation research and present new evidence on factors which shape innovation in construction, drawing on extensive interviews with construction firms across Europe. They suggest that particular structures of ownership, management, and inter-organizational relations are responsible for variations in the economic performance of the construction industry in five European countries.
Table of Contents:
1 Corporate governance and innovation in construction in five European countries 15
2 Networks and innovation in construction in five European countries 46
3 Sustainable technologies and the innovation-regulation paradox : the case of natural thermal insulation 73
4 Factors enabling and inhibiting sustainable technologies in construction : the case of active solar heating systems 90
5 Networks and sustainable technologies : the case of Scottish social housing 106
