I am intrested in designing a integral abutment bridge/jointless bridge. Kindly help in calculating the soil spring value for wall and earth pressure distribution on solid wall type abutment and soil structure interaction. Please share any design reference, text book,journal or research paper on this subject.
More than one million people suffer from a slip, trip, or fall each year and 17,700 died as a result of falls in 2005. They are the number one preventable cause of loss in the workplace and the leading cause of injury in public places. Completely revised, Slip, Trip, and Fall Prevention: A Practical Handbook, Second Edition demonstrates how, with proper design and maintenance, many of these events can be prevented. This well-illustrated and carefully researched volume covers standards and best practices for facility design, effective management control programs, test methods and standards relating to pedestrian safety, and slip resistance methods in the U.S. and abroad. It includes checklists, handouts, case studies, rich online resources, and an extensive bibliography. See what’s new in the Second Edition: Enhanced photographs and tables, profiles of online resources, updated examples, case studies, and sidebars A new chapter on the unique hazards and controls to protect staff and patrons in food service A new chapter on known parameters and causes of patient falls, assessment methods, and methods for reduction of staff falls Discussion of flooring and floor maintenance, cleaning products and methods, outsourcing, and maintenance Coverage of management controls, a holistic approach to integrating slip/fall prevention controls into existing functions, hazard mapping, and electronic inspection systems Physical aspects of rubber walkways surfaces, expanded floor mats, new stairway statistics, visibility, and design Roughness measurements, perception of slipperiness, overseas standards, profiles of high risk industries, and accident investigation Contrary to popular belief, most slips and falls are not due to carelessness. This Handbook examines the many options available in the design and maintenance of facilities that can reduce or eliminate the potential for slips and falls.

Enclosure walls have a key role in building construction, providing structural safety and protecting interiors from intrusion. The concept of an enclosure wall is a traditional one, common to the building history of many countries. There is a tremendous variety in types of enclosure walls, depending on such variables as climate and local technologies. Progress in these traditional practices has been stimulated by new national and international standards in the construction industry. These standards have contributed to improvements in areas such as thermal insulation and earthquake resistance and have promoted the development of new materials and methods in enclosure wall construction. The aim of this book, by the Commission on Wall Structures of the International Council for Building (CIB), is to select certain countries or regions, and examine enclosure masonry walls which are perceived as being typical. For each example, the following are considered: characterization of the building sector; the customary materials used in masonry; typical problems and solutions for enclosure walls; and evolutionary trends.

This British Standard specifies performance requirements, including requirements for durability, for water repellents intended for use on
masonry above ground level and free from cracks with a surface width exceeding 0.15 mm.
Water repellents are classified into four groups according to suitability for use on particular types of substrate. The various clauses in the specification containing performance requirements refer to
Appendix A to Appendix H inclusive. These appendices contain test procedures, which are also requirements of the standard.
Appendix J gives recommendations for use, covering general considerations, the preparation of surfaces to be treated, the application of the repellent and the protection of workers.
NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.

Presents a cohesive and comprehensive understanding of water-retaining structures' construction in order to build with speed and economy. Contains numerous worldwide examples, many of which are based on existing structures as well as extensive tables related to the analysis of rectangular, circular and conical formations in order to develop good working practice. Also features practical diagrams, computer programs, listings and a useful appendix which covers the analysis of ground-supported open circular concrete tanks.

Stress characteristics for shallow footings in cohesionless slopes
J. Graham, M. Andrews, D. H. Shields
Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 1988, 25(2): 238-249, 10.1139/t88-028
In November of 2013 Microstran software products (Limcon, MStower, Microstran) are now part of Bentley Systems
Limcon is productivity-geared steel connection design software. Connection types include beam to column, brace end, member splices, anchorage to concrete, and complicated multi-member joints. By using a library of standard connection types, designers can arrive at results in a remarkably short time.
Comprehensive limit state design to a number of international standards.
Shear and moment connections, member splices, brace end connections, base plates, and hollow section connections.
Connections may be auto-designed by program or specified directly by user.
Concise calculation summary, reporting results for all relevant limit states.
Output to CAD format directly from design.

AM SBeam is a powerful and versatile program for the design of steel beams. Using one of several design codes, RAM SBeam can select the optimum beam size or check the adequacy of existing construction. The program provides rapid evaluation and comparison between various beams under various load conditions. RAM SBeam has a user interface unparalleled for simplicity and ease of use, while providing a very powerful design capability. This results in substantial time savings for the Engineer and a more economical design for the client

At the nano size materials often take on unique and sometimes unexpected properties which results in materials being ‘tuned’ to build faster, lighter, stronger and more efficient devices and systems, as well as new classes of materials. In the water research, nanotechnology is applied to develop more cost-effective and high-performance water treatment systems as well as instant and continuous ways to monitor water quality as well.
Nanotechnology in water applications potentially impacts on treatment, remediation, sensing, and pollution prevention. Nanotechnology for water treatment and remediation has the potential to maintain the long-term water quality, availability and viability of water resource. Thus, water via nanotechnology can be reused, recycled, desalinized and also it can detect the biological and chemical contamination at even very low concentration no matter if it is coming from municipal, industrial or man-made waste.
Water Research Nanotechnology Applications describes a broad area of nanotechnology and water research where membrane processes (nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis and nanoreactive membranes) are considered key components of advanced water purification and desalination technologies to remove, reduce or neutralize water contaminants that threaten human health and/or ecosystem productivity and integrity. Various nanoparticles and nanomaterials that could be used in water remediation (zeolites, carbon nanotubes, self-assembled monolayer on mesoporous supports, biopolymers, single-enzyme nanoparticles, zero-valent iron nanoparticles, bimetallic iron nanoparticles, and nanoscale semiconductor photocatalysts) are also discussed. Water-borne infectious diseases as well as water-borne pathogens, microbes and toxicity approach receive attention.
