It would house 35,000 residents and host 100,000 daily workers, students and visitors. This space-age city in the sky might seem like science fiction, but it answers some questions about where humans might live as our most crowded cities become even more densely populated. <<it is flash>>

The various code application examples of Volume I are organized in numerical order by 1997 UBC section number. To find an example for a particular provision of the code, look at the upper, outer corner of each page, or in the table of contents.
Volume I of the SEAOC Seismic Design Manual: Code Application Examples deals with interpretation and use of the seismic provisions of the 1997 Uniform Building Code (UBC). The Seismic Design Manual is intended to help the reader understand and correctly use the UBC seismic provisions and to provide clear, concise, and graphic guidance on the application of specific provisions of the code. It primaril addresses the major seismic provisions of Chapter 16 of the UBC, with interpretation of specific provisions and examples highlighting their proper application. Volume I presents 55 examples that illustrate the application of specific seismic provisions of the UBC. Each example is a separate problem, or group of problems, and deals primarily with a single code provision. Each example begins with a description of the problem to be solved and a statement of given information. The problem is solved through the normal sequence of steps, each of which are illustrated in full. Appropriate code references for each step are identified in the right-hand margin of the page.

Product Description:
Composite construction, using a reinforced concrete slab on top of steel girders, is an economical and popular form of construction for highway bridges.
This book covers the design of continuous composite bridges, with both compact and non-compact sections, and simply supported composite bridges with the 'slab-on-beam' form of construction.
Design Guide for Composite Highway Bridges is a compilation of guidance previously given in separate SCI publications. As such it will act as an authoritative guide for new designers and as a reference text for the bridge design office.

Reviews:
'Well produced, informative and with many items demonstrated by examples. It is recommended, particularly for graduate bridge engineers.' - The Structural Engineer
'There is a good balance between theoretical and practical information and recommendations for the resolution of design problems.' - Concrete March 2001
'This book will appeal to practising bridge engineers, as well as students of the subject, and is a useful successor to Bridge Deck Behaviour by E. C. Hambly.' - Concrete March 2001
Product Description:
This is book is the definitive text on the field of bridge deck behavior and analysis. It provides bridge designers with an evaluation of analytical and modelling techniques and software available, and describe which technique is most suited to each bridge type. The book details US, UK and European codes.

Book Description:
This book is concerned with the long term durability of concrete as a structural material as used in the construction of buildings, bridges, roads, marine and civil engineering structures. It discusses the fundamental reasons for the deterioration of concrete over time and available techniques for detecting, remedying and preventing the deterioration.

This helpful tool provides a comparative analysis between the structural provisions of the 1997 Uniform Building Code and the 2000 International Building Code with a cross reference directory. Code sections, tables and figures from the IBC are listed sequentially with an analysis of comparison to the UBC which can be used as a plan checking and field inspection aid. Readers can also locate IBC section numbers for similar provisions found in the UBC and transition them to the IBC.

Foundation Design and Construction by M. J. Tomlinson - 6th ed.
Foundation Design and Construction has long been established as the most comprehensive and authoritative guide to the subject. The combination of soil engineering principles, design information, and construction details, makes this book an essential resource for undergraduates and practitioners alike. The text first introduces basic theory and then, by means of case studies, practical worked examples and design charts, develops an in-depth understanding of foundation design and construction methods. Types of foundation covered include shallow strip, pad and raft, basement structures, driven and bored piles, and deep shafts. Practical information is also given on foundation design for swelling and shrinking clays, filled ground and mining subsidence areas. In addition the text contains a useful introduction to computer-aided design.The seventh edition has been brought up-to-date with recent developments in foundation design and construction techniques. These include recent research undertaken by the Construction Industry Research and Development Association (CIRIA) leading to new methods and design rules, and a discussion of the requirements for the latest draft of Eurocode 7: Geotechnical Design.
