If someone of you have this standard - ASTM C1760 - 12 "Standard Test Method for Bulk Electrical Conductivity of Hardened Concrete", let's share it with me, please.
This book describes inventions and designs of ancient engineers that are the precursors of the present. The ages mainly range from 300 B.C. to 1600 A.D. with some exceptions from before and after this period. As for the very ancient ones, the book describes inventions (documented by archaeological finds mainly from Pompei, Ercolano and Stabia) that generally are very little known and sometimes not known at all. Some inventions are in the military field. This is because (unfortunately) many inventions and technological innovations have been conceived starting from military applications. The book is divided into five parts. The first four parts pertain to definite fields and present inventions generally conceived up to the late Roman Empire. Inventions that are representative of the engineering genius of the ancients and that may be considered as milestones, each in their respective field. The fifth part refers to fields of engineering (such as textiles and automation) in which important innovations were conceived also in more recent centuries. For each of the inventions presented, even the ancient ones of many centuries past, the authors provide three elements of research and reference: Written documents (the classics) Iconic references (coins, bas-reliefs, etc.) Archaeological findings. The target groups of the book are students and scholars with interest on History of Mechanical Engineering in Antiquity and Archaelogy.

Bentley gINT Pro Plus V8i (SELECTSeries 1) 08.30.03.223
Size: 190 MB
Bentley Systems, Incorporated, the leading company dedicated to providing comprehensive software solutions for sustaining infrastructure, announced the release of gINT V8i Professional Plus (SELECTSeries 1) 08.30.03.223 software, which provides centralized data management and reporting for subsurface projects of all types: geotechnical, geoenvironmental, geophysical, petroleum, mining, and more.
With gINT software, engineers and geoprofessionals can gather, manage, present, and report on subsurface data more efficiently and with greater accuracy.
The industry leader for over 25 years, gINT software is designed by experienced engineers who fully understand the standards and requirements that facilitate high-quality geotechnical and geoenvironmental data management and reporting. gINT delivers a full spectrum of data with flexible options to define and customize reports to best suit user preferences.
gINT Professional Plus takes gINT to the next level with SQL Server support for efficient, centralized data management and powerful multi-project reporting.
gINT Professional Plus builds on the reporting and data management capabilities of gINT Professional, adding SQL Server support for efficient, centralized data management and powerful multi-project reporting.
gINT Professional Plus enables users to:
- Report and query subsurface data from an unlimited number of projects
- Standardize company methods for entering, importing, storing, and reporting data
- Share data with related software programs (including CAD, GIS, and contouring and modeling applications)
- Visualize gINT data using gINT for ArcGIS
- Convert projects so that all use the same geo-coordinate system

Design and Construct High-Performance Buildings on Standard Budgets
This comprehensive, well-illustrated guide covers the entire process of building a certified green building. It offers expert insight into tackling various projects, from concept and design, to unifying members of the team, to constructing high-performance buildings on time and within budget.
Written by one of the building industry's foremost experts in this area, Green Building Through Integrated Design includes case studies of a number of projects in North America. The book features interviews with key players to illuminate the integrated design process, including relevant issues, difficult challenges, and problem-solving techniques. Green Building Through Integrated Design is the most complete overview of green building project delivery methods available, and is a thorough blueprint that every member of the project team will find invaluable.
Includes:
Key questions to ask at each stage of the green building process
Profiles of 30 projects in the U.S. and Canada
Detailed interviews with numerous designers and builders
Useful checklists, tables, and charts, and numerous project photos
Key tips on how to iimplement the LEED design and certification process
Information on how to use green building project management software
Green Building Through Integrated Design covers:
Project costs
Business case benefits
Green technologies
Rating and certification systems

COST is an intergovernmental framework for European Cooperation in Science and Technology, allowing the coordination of nationally-funded research on a European level. Part of COST was COST Action C26 Urban Habitat Constructions Under Catastrophic Events’, which started in 2006 and held its final conference in Naples, Italy, on 16-18 September 2010. The main objective of COST Action C26 was to increase the knowledge of the behavior of constructions in urban habitat under catastrophic events (earthquakes, fire, wind, impact, explosions etc.), in order to predict their response when both the applied loading and the inherent structural resistance are combined in such a way that the safety level reaches unacceptable values, leading in some cases to a premature collapse.
Urban Habitat Constructions Under Catastrophic Events collects 151 papers from internationally recognized outstanding experts from 46 countries that were presented at the final conference: 82 contributions from COST experts and 69 from external authors. They are subdivided into 5 sections, which exactly correspond to the 5 Chapters of the Final Report of the COST Action C26 activity:
1. Characterization of catastrophic actions on constructions;
2. Analysis of behavior of constructions under catastrophic events;
3. Evaluation of vulnerability of constructions;
4. Protecting, strengthening and repairing;
5. Strategy and guidelines for damage prevention.
Urban Habitat Constructions Under Catastrophic Events will be of interest to academics and engineers in civil and structural engineering, especially those involved in fire resistance, earthquake resistance, impact and explosion resistance, and resistance to infrequent Loading Conditions.
