This revised, fully updated second edition covers the analysis, design, and construction of reinforced concrete structures from a real-world perspective. It examines different reinforced concrete elements such as slabs, beams, columns, foundations, basement and retaining walls and pre-stressed concrete incorporating metric units and the most up-to-date edition of the American Concrete Institute Code (ACI 318-14) requirements for the design of concrete structures. A new chapter on the design of formworks has been added which is of great value to students in the construction engineering programs along with practicing engineers and architects. This second edition also includes a new appendix with color images illustrating various concrete construction practices, and well-designed buildings. The ACI 318-14 constitutes the most extensive reorganization of the code in the past 40 years. References to the various sections of the ACI 318-14 are provided throughout the book to facilitate its use by students and professionals. Aimed at architecture, building construction, and undergraduate engineering students, the scope of concepts in this volume emphasize simplified and practical methods in the analysis and design of reinforced concrete. Distinct from advanced, graduate engineering texts, where treatment of the subject centers around the theoretical and mathematical aspects of design over details of design. As in the first edition, this book adopts a step-by-step approach to solving analysis and design problems in reinforced concrete. Adopting a highly graphical and interactive approach in its use of detailed images and self-experimentation exercises, “Concrete Structures, Second Edition,” is tailored to the most practical design questions and fundamental concepts of design of structures in reinforced concrete. The text stands as an ideal learning resource for civil engineering, building construction, and architecture students as well as a valuable reference for concrete structural design professionals in practice.

This Standard provides requirements for the design and evaluation of building components of fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP) in buildings and of building components reinforced with FRP materials. It is based on limit states design principles and is consistent with the National Building Code of Canada. This Standard does not apply to the design of fibre-reinforced concrete (FRC), except for FRC/FRP cladding as defined in Clause 7.3 and Clause 13.

THE DEFINITIVE RESOURCE FOR TRANSPORTATION PLANNING PROFESSIONALS
The Transportation Planning Handbook provides a comprehensive reference with a practical focus on fundamentals concepts and techniques. This new fourth edition draws from 70 years of solutions by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), with a new emphasis on serving the needs of all users. Context-sensitive roadways, sustainable transportation, and the context of safety in planning are discussed with expert insight, and a new content structure facilitates a more functionally-driven multimodal approach to planning, designing, and implementing transportation solutions.
Collect and analyze data to predict usage, volume, demand, parking, and more
Adopt custom approaches to planning transportation in corridors, activity centers, and metropolitan, rural, and recreational areas
Consider the impact of freight, pedestrians, cyclists, and environmental factors on a transportation network
Get up to date on ADA, HSM, MUTCD, HCM, and other safety regulations
Include the public in the planning process through social media and active participation
Understand the use of performance measures in the planning process.
Reflecting both the latest advances and proven methods, the Transportation Planning Handbook provides an essential day-to-day reference for transportation planning professionals.

Manual for the geotechnical design of structures to Eurocode 7
Author(s): The Institution of Structural Engineers Published By:IStructE Ltd Published Year:May 2013 Size: 4 MB Abstract: Quick Overview:
The Manual presents a unified design approach to geotechnical engineering and provides guidance across a range of activities, from traditional foundation design to slope stability, retaining wall design, investigation and reporting. The Manual aims to help engineers move from a permissible stress approach to that of the limit state design philosophy, as well as promoting interaction and understanding between structural and geotechnical engineers.
