This book marks the 60th anniversary of ICE's world leading journal, Géotechnique. It includes a set of seminal papers published in Géotechnique over the past 60 years as well as all the papers from the specially commissioned June 2008 Diamond Jubilee issue.
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THEORY AND PRACTICE
The book highlights the important contributions that Géotechnique has made, and continues to make, to the theory and practice of ground engineering and provides a glimpse into the future.
Since it was first published in 1948, the journal has continued to ignite international interest, providing readers with the best original papers and technical notes on soil and rock mechanics, engineering geology and environmental geotechnics.
THE SOURCE OF MODERN GEOTECHNICS
Nine seminal Géotechnique papers from 1950-1990 have been reproduced in their original format alongside the discussions that they provoked. Many of these papers set the direction of modern geotechnics and the origins of current theory and practice can be retraced to them.

Abstract: The effects of water-cementitious materials ratio, age, and aggregate type on the compressive strength, flexural strength, and fracture energy of concretes with compressive strengths ranging from 20 to 99 MPa (2900 to 14,400 psi) are studied. Concrete mixtures contain either basalt or crushed limestone aggregate with maximum sizes of 12 or 19 mm (1/2 or 3/4 in.). Mixtures are tested at ages ranging from 5 to 180 days and have water-cementitious (w/cm) ratios ranging from 0.24 to 0.50. High-strength concrete containing the higher-strength, basalt coarse aggregate attains higher compressive and flexural strengths than high-strength concrete containing limestone. The compressive and flexural strengths of medium and normal-strength concretes (fc¢ up to approximately 60 MPa [9000 psi]) are affected little by aggregate type. Concrete containing basalt yields significantly higher fracture energy than concrete containing limestone, with fracture energy governed principally by aggregate properties, independent of compressive strength, w/cm ratio, and age. Overall, as compressive strength increases, the energy stored in the material at the peak tensile load increases while the ability of the material to dissipate energy remains approximately constant. The result is increasingly brittle behavior as compressive strength increases.

Hi,
I am looking for Norwegian National Annexes to Eurocode: NS-EN.
Maybe someone have any and can share?
The most necessary are annexes to the parts of EN 1990, 1991 and 1993 (steel structures, especially 1993-1-1 and 1993-1-8).
Thank You in advance.
The book establishes sewer processes as an integral part of managing, designing, and operating an urban wastewater system. It presents in-sewer processes from a fundamental and conceptual point of view for easy understanding by students. Both engineers and students will find the book's models and practical examples useful. It demonstrates a range of sewer and treatment issues, such as odor control, corrosion, and integrated wastewater treatment. It also explains how environmental process engineering principles can be applied to sewer design, resulting in better wastewater treatment and cleaner water entering receiving areas.
Sewer Processes
Microbial and Chemical Process Engineering of Sewer Networks, 2nd Edition
Sewer Processes: Microbial and Chemical Process Engineering of Sewer Networks, Second Edition, provides a basis for up-to-date understanding and modeling of sewer microbial and chemical processes and demonstrates how this knowledge can be applied for the design, operation, and the maintenance of wastewater collection systems. The authors add chemical and microbial dimensions to the design and management of sewer networks with an overall aim of improved sustainability for the system itself and the surrounding environment.
