Abstract:
Cast-in-place or precast reinforced concrete box culverts are widely used throughout the world to provide safe and relatively economical structures for the conveyance of water, vehicles, utilities or pedestrians. Although the single cell or multi-cell box culverts are rather simple structures, the loadings applied to these structures during their construction and subsequent service life can be complex. These structures are subjected to substantial vertical and lateral earth pressures, and are often SUbjected to significant temporary loadings during the construction of the embankment. In spite of the complex nature of the loading around these structures, simple routine design procedures would be highly desirable if they could be made possible.When the relative settlement of the soil prism directly above the structure is greater than that of the adjacent soil prisms, as in trench installations, the layers of soil in the central prism are subjected to a reverse arch shape defonnation and consequently the earth pressure on the structure is reduced by the amount of the shearing forces exerted to the central soil prism.Likewise, when the relative settlement of the soil prism directly above the structure is less than that of the adjacent soil prisms, as is usually found in embankment installations, the layers of soil on the central prism are subjected to an arch shape defonnation and the earth pressure on the structure is increased. Although Marston[I,2] and Spangler[3,31,32] successfully quantified these phenomena by solving differential equations based on the equilibrium conditions of a simplified free body of prisms, an opportunity exists to revisit the problem using the modern-day numerical techniques made possible by the development of finite element methods

The Routledge Handbook of Planning Research Methods
Author(s)/Editor(s): Elisabete A. Silva, Patsy Healey, Neil Harris and Pieter Van den Broeck | Size: 8 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Routledge | Year: 2014 | pages: 572 | ISBN: 0415727952
The Routledge Handbook of Planning Research Methods is an expansive look at the traditions, methods, and challenges of research design and research projects in contemporary urban planning. Through case studies, an international group of researchers, planning practitioners, and planning academics and educators, all recognized authorities in the field, provide accounts of designing and implementing research projects from different approaches and venues.
This book shows how to apply quantitative and qualitative methods to projects, and how to take your research from the classroom to the real world. The book is structured into sections focusing on
Beginning planning research
Research design and development
Rediscovering qualitative methods
New advances in quantitative methods
Turning research into action
With chapters written by leading scholars in spatial planning, The Routledge Handbook of Planning Research Methods is the most authoritative and comprehensive handbook on the topic, providing both established and ground breaking coverage of spatial planning research methods. The book is an invaluable resource for undergraduate and graduate level students, young professionals and practitioners in urban, regional, and spatial planning.

Building with wood as an ecologically viable material is a tradition with a long history. The timber architecture which has ensued over the past centuries reveals to the modern observer the depth of knowledge which has enabled both Eastern und Western cultures to use this wonderful material in such a creative way. In the most typical method of building with wood, elements are connected by using wood joints which do not require the assistance of adhesives or metal connectors. This art of wood jointing reached its zenith in Japan; but Europe too provided its share of highly influential forms. By looking at several hundred examples from Japan and 18 European countries, with a new chapter on China added to this enlarged edition, this book describes in great detail the history of timber architecture in terms of its technical, aesthetic and ecological dimensions. This thorough study is a mine of information to specialists in this field; it opens up to the craftsman of today what has become an almost forgotten world and provides a fascinating account for the general reader. Here is a man who has trekked though the wild Carpathian forests, the Norwegian outback, the Russian steppes and obscure regions of Japan in pursuit of the wood joint. He tells the story with a sense of unfolding discovery; for anyone interested in how buildings work this book is a joy to read."" the architects journal
