The management of construction projects is a wide ranging and challenging discipline in an increasingly international industry, facing continual challenges and demands for improvements in safety, in quality and cost control, and in the avoidance of contractual disputes.
Construction Management grew out of a Leonardo da Vinci project to develop a series of Common Learning Outcomes for European Managers in Construction. Financed by the European Union, the project aimed to develop a library of basic materials for developing construction management skills for use in a pan-European context. Focused exclusively on the management of the construction phase of a building project from the contractor’s point of view, Construction Management covers the complete range of topics of which mastery is required by the construction management professional for the effective delivery of new construction projects.
With the continued internationalisation of the construction industry, Construction Management will be required reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students across Europe

Written by a leader on the subject, Introduction to Geotechnical Engineering is first introductory geotechnical engineering textbook to cover both saturated and unsaturated soil mechanics. Destined to become the next leading text in the field, this book presents a new approach to teaching the subject, based on fundamentals of unsaturated soils, and extending the description of applications of soil mechanics to a wide variety of topics.
This groundbreaking work features a number of topics typically left out of undergraduate geotechnical courses

Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a rapidly developing field that has seen tremendous progress over the past 15 years. The development of GPR spans aspects of geophysical science, technology, and a wide range of scientific and engineering applications. It is the breadth of applications that has made GPR such a valuable tool in the geophysical consulting and geotechnical engineering industries, has lead to its rapid development, and inspired new areas of research in academia. The topic of GPR has gone from not even being mentioned in geophysical texts ten years ago to being the focus of hundreds of research papers and special issues of journals dedicated to the topic. The explosion of primary literature devoted to GPR technology, theory and applications, has lead to a strong demand for an up-to-date synthesis and overview of this rapidly developing field. Because there are specifics in the utilization of GPR for different applications, a review of the current state of development of the applications along with the fundamental theory is required. This book will provide sufficient detail to allow both practitioners and newcomers to the area of GPR to use it as a handbook and primary research reference. *Review of GPR theory and applications by leaders in the field *Up-to-date information and references *effective handbook and primary research reference for both experienced practitioners and newcomers

Performance Based Inelastic Seismic Analysis of Buildings
Author: Reshama M. Karad;S. N. Tande | Size: 648 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: International Journal of Latest Trends in Engineering and Technology (IJLTET) | Year: 2013 | pages: 11
Occurrence of the earthquake is unpredictable, but we can adopt preventive measures to overcome problems
during earthquake. In this case, various organizations in the earthquake threatened countries have come up with
documents, which serve as guidelines for assessment of the strength, expected performance and safety of existing
buildings as well as for carrying out the necessary strengthening required.
The present paper deals with detailed discussions on non-linear static analysis methods various structural performance
levels of building. Seismic evaluation followed by information about various strengthening techniques for beam and
column. The study includes the Pushover Analysis of G+6 storey building using SAP 2000 with default and user-defined
hinges. And conclude that model with user-defined hinge properties is more successful for capturing hinging mechanism.

Analytical Case Study of Seismic Performance of Retrofit Strategies for Reinforced Concrete Frames: Steel Bracing with Shear Links Versus Column Jacketing
Author: Mais M. Al-Dwaik and Nazzal S. Armouti | Size: 953 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Jordan Journal of Civil Engineering, Volume 7, No. 1, 2013 | Year: 2013 | pages: 18
The effectiveness of seismic retrofitting applied to enhance seismic performance is assessed for a five-storey reinforced concrete (RC) frame building structure as built in Jordan in mid 80s. The response of the structure is evaluated using nonlinear static and dynamic analysis with synthetic ground motion records for rock base.
FEMA 356 criteria are used to evaluate the seismic performance of the case study building. Two approaches are used for seismic evaluation: global-level evaluation (drift values) and member-level evaluation using three performance levels (immediate occupancy, life safety and collapse prevention). Based on the seismic evaluation results, two possible retrofit techniques are applied to improve the seismic performance of the structure, including the addition of RC column jackets and the addition of eccentric steel bracing. SAP 2000 is used to perform linear and nonlinear dynamic analysis, whereas plastic hinge analysis is performed by Response 2000. This study shows that adding new structural elements as steel members to an existing RC building proves to be effective in enhancing performance and reducing cost than adding RC elements. Even more, the eccentric bracing proves to outperform the column jacketing drift limit, plastic hinge limit and cost effectiveness.
