Complete coverage of earthquake-resistant concrete building design
Written by a renowned seismic engineering expert, this authoritative resource discusses the theory and practice for the design and evaluation of earthquakeresistingreinforced concrete buildings. The book addresses the behavior of reinforced concrete materials, components, and systems subjected to routine and extreme loads, with an emphasis on response to earthquake loading.
Design methods, both at a basic level as required by current building codes and at an advanced level needed for special problems such as seismic performance assessment, are described. Data and models useful for analyzing reinforced concrete structures as well as numerous illustrations, tables, and equations are included in this detailed reference.
Seismic Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings covers:
Seismic design and performance verification
Steel reinforcement
Concrete
Confined concrete
Axially loaded members
Moment and axial force
Shear in beams, columns, and walls
Development and anchorage
Beam-column connections
Slab-column and slab-wall connections
Seismic design overview
Special moment frames
Special structural walls
Gravity framing
Diaphragms and collectors
Foundations

Fluid Dynamics via Examples and Solutions provides a substantial set of example problems and detailed model solutions covering various phenomena and effects in fluids. The book is ideal as a supplement or exam review for undergraduate and graduate courses in fluid dynamics, continuum mechanics, turbulence, ocean and atmospheric sciences, and related areas. It is also suitable as a main text for fluid dynamics courses with an emphasis on learning by example and as a self-study resource for practicing scientists who need to learn the basics of fluid dynamics.
The author covers several sub-areas of fluid dynamics, types of flows, and applications. He also includes supplementary theoretical material when necessary. Each chapter presents the background, an extended list of references for further reading, numerous problems, and a complete set of model solutions.

This second edition was prepared by a working party of the Concrete Society's Construction Group. The guide is complementary to BS 5975 Code of Practice for Falsework, and is intended primarily for use by the temporary works designer (TWD) and by those involved in supplying, constructing and supervising the work. For the previous edition see IRRD 294367.

Fundamentals of Ground Engineering is an unconventional study guide that serves up the key principles, theories, definitions, and analyses of geotechnical engineering in bite-sized pieces. This book contains brief—one or two pages per topic—snippets of information covering the geotechnical engineering component of a typical undergraduate course in civil engineering as well as some topics for advanced courses. Written in note form, it summarizes the basic principles and theories of soil mechanics, the procedures for creating a geotechnical model, and the common analyses for slopes, foundations, and walls.
Puts the mechanics into soil mechanics
Presents information that is simple to use—structured around diagrams and formulae with few words
Explains detailed analyses given in the longer standard texts
A short, easily read summary of the basic theories and routine analyses of ground engineering, Fundamentals of Ground Engineering incorporates plenty of diagrams and concentrated data without going into detailed explanations. This text is an ideal reference for students, practicing civil engineers—senior and junior—and by engineering geologists.

May I suggest for new sections for Abaqus and Ansys. The use of these software is gradually increasing, thereby leading to scattered posts in the forum. Having them in one section will help add to the yet organized forum and reduce scattered posts. I will personally contribute to posts in the section.
N.B: Can we have a way to hide our forum password...this will help to further encrypt our materials and softwares.
Elastic settlement of shallow foundations on granular soil: a critical review
Author: Braja M. Das | Size: 2.55 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified
Developments in major procedures available in the literature relating to elastic settlement of shallow foundations supported by granular soil are presented and compared. The discrepancies between the observed and the predicted settlement are primarily due to the inability to estimate the modulus of elasticity of soil using the results of the standard penetration tests and/or cone penetration tests. Based on the procedures available at this time, recommendations have been made for the best estimation of settlement of foundations
