  Design of Foundations for Expansive Soils

Design of Foundations for Expansive Soils

Author: John D. Nelson and Kuo Chieh Chao | Size: 7 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Wiley | Year: 2015 | pages: 416 | ISBN: 0470581522

Your guide to the design and construction of foundations on expansive soils

Foundation Engineering for Expansive Soils fills a significant gap in the current literature by presenting coverage of the design and construction of foundations for expansive soils. Written by an expert author team with nearly 70 years of combined industry experience, this important new work is the only modern guide to the subject, describing proven methods for identifying and analyzing expansive soils and developing foundation designs appropriate for specific locations.

Expansive soils are found worldwide and are the leading cause of damage to structural roads. The primary problem that arises with regard to expansive soils is that deformations are significantly greater than in non–expansive soils and the size and direction of the deformations are difficult to predict. Now, Foundation Engineering for Expansive Soils gives engineers and contractors coverage of this subject from a design perspective, rather than a theoretical one. Plus, they′ll have access to case studies covering the design and construction of foundations on expansive salts from both commercial and residential projects.
Provides a succinct introduction to the basics of expansive soils and their threats
Includes information on both shallow and deep foundation design
Profiles soil remediation techniques, backed–up with numerous case studies
Covers the most commonly used laboratory tests and site investigation techniques used for establishing the physical properties of expansive soils

If you′re a practicing civil engineer, geotechnical engineer or contractor, geologist, structural engineer, or an upper–level undergraduate or graduate student of one of these disciplines, Foundation Engineering for Expansive Soils is a must–have addition to your library of resources.

  Dynamic Analysis and Design of Offshore Structures
Posted by: cace-01 - 02-20-2015, 06:28 AM - Forum: Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering - Replies (4)

Dynamic Analysis and Design of Offshore Structures

Author: Srinivasan Chandrasekaran | Size: 9 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2015 | pages: 287 | ISBN: 8132222768, 9788132222767, 9788132222774

[Image: info.png]

This book attempts to provide readers with an overall idea of various types of offshore platform geometries. It covers the various environmental loads encountered by these structures, a detailed description of the fundamentals of structural dynamics in a class-room style, estimate of damping in offshore structures and their applications in the preliminary analysis and design. Basic concepts of structural dynamics are emphasized through simple illustrative examples and exercises. Design methodologies and guidelines, which are FORM based concepts are explained through a few applied example structures. Each chapter also has tutorials and exercises for self-learning. A dedicated chapter on stochastic dynamics will help the students to extend the basic concepts of structural dynamics to this advanced domain of research. Hydrodynamic response of offshore structures with perforated members is one of the recent research applications, which is found to be one of the effective manner of retrofitting offshore structures. Results of recent research, validated by the experimental and numerical studies are presented to update of the readers. Integration of the concepts of structural dynamics with the FORM-evolved design of offshore structures is a unique approach used in this book. The book will prove useful to the practicing and consulting offshore structural engineers, as also to students and researchers working in the field.

I'm looking for further guidance about thermal coefficient Ct
As you may know, the thermal coefficient Ct should be used to account for the reduction of snow loads on roofs with high thermal transmittance (> 1 W/m2K), in particular for some glass covered roofs, because of melting caused by heat loss.

If you have any information please share it
Thank you.

  Building Maintenance Processes and Practices: The Case of a Fast Developing Country

Building Maintenance Processes and Practices: The Case of a Fast Developing Country

Author: Abdul Lateef Olanrewaju | Size: 5 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2015 | pages: 364 | ISBN: 9812872620

[Image: 84715175676151036450.jpeg]


[Image: info.png]

This book is designed to be an inclusive for the best practice approach to building maintenance management, where the processes, procedures and operational systems meet a high standard of professional and academic competence. It offers a different perspective on building maintenance management by presenting the schematic building maintenance value chain model and it’s implementation in Malaysian university buildings. The findings show an improvement to building performance, lower maintenance cost, building sustainability and increased maintenance service user satisfaction. The learning outcomes and summaries provided for each chapter and the extensive use of tables and figures add to the readability of the text. Though the book is based on data from Malaysia, it is useful for a much wider audience, and the informal writing style makes it an interesting reference source. This book is valuable for readers who are practitioners, professionals and for academic institutions that offer courses in the building field, including architecture, quantity surveying, civil engineering, building and facility management, property management, real estate. It will also be of interest to governments and others involved in the construction industry.

Seismic Ground Response Analysis

Author: Nozomu Yoshida | Size: 26 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2015 | pages: 365 | ISBN: 9401794596, 9401794618, 9789401794602

[Image: 05135800660303012120.jpeg]


[Image: info.png]

This book presents state-of-the-art information on seismic ground response analysis, and is not only very valuable and useful for practitioners but also for researchers. The topics covered are related to the stages of analysis: 1. Input parameter selection, by reviewing the in-situ and laboratory tests used to determine dynamic soil properties as well as the methods to compile and model the dynamic soil properties from literature;2. Input ground motion; 3. Theoretical background on the equations of motion and methods for solving them; 4. The mechanism of damping and how this is modeled in the equations of motions; 5. Detailed analysis and discussion of results of selected case studies which provide valuable information on the problem of seismic ground response analysis from both a theoretical and practical point of view.

  Vibrations and Stability of Complex Beam Systems
Posted by: cace-01 - 02-19-2015, 07:45 AM - Forum: Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering - Replies (1)

Vibrations and Stability of Complex Beam Systems

Author: Vladimir Stojanovic and Predrag Kozic | Size: 19 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2015 | pages: 166 | ISBN: 3319137662, 3319137689, 9783319137667, 9783319137674

[Image: 15204182981286086703.jpeg]


[Image: info.png]

This book reports on solved problems concerning vibrations and stability of complex beam systems. The complexity of a system is considered from two points of view: the complexity originating from the nature of the structure, in the case of two or more elastically connected beams; and the complexity derived from the dynamic behavior of the system, in the case of a damaged single beam, resulting from the harm done to its simple structure. Furthermore, the book describes the analytical derivation of equations of two or more elastically connected beams, using four different theories (Euler, Rayleigh, Timoshenko and Reddy-Bickford). It also reports on a new, improved p-version of the finite element method for geometrically nonlinear vibrations. The new method provides more accurate approximations of solutions, while also allowing us to analyze geometrically nonlinear vibrations. The book describes the appearance of longitudinal vibrations of damaged clamped-clamped beams as a result of discontinuity (damage). It describes the cases of stability in detail, employing all four theories, and provides the readers with practical examples of stochastic stability. Overall, the book succeeds in collecting in one place theoretical analyses, mathematical modeling and validation approaches based on various methods, thus providing the readers with a comprehensive toolkit for performing vibration analysis on complex beam systems.
