Author: Lawrence Wai-Chung Lai, Daniel Chi-Wing Ho | Size: 21.15 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Hong Kong Univ. Press | Year: 2000 | pages: 401 | ISBN: 9622095054
This book is the first attempt to present the decisions of Hong Kong's Building Appeal Tribunal in a comprehensive and systematic style. Grouped under nine major themes, the cases exhibit the arguments considered by the Tribunal with emphasis on the general principles utilized in deciding them.

A two-day workshop on Nonlinear Static Methods for Design/Assessment of 3D Structures was held at the Department of Civil Engineering and Architecture of the Technical University of Lisbon (Instituto Superior Técnico - IST) on 5-6 May 2008. The Workshop was co-chaired by Rita Bento (IST, Lisbon, Portugal) and Rui Pinho (University of Pavia, Italy) and was organized within the scope of the Portuguese national research project POCI/ECM/59306/2004, named “Performance-based Seismic Design Procedures”, of the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia - FCT).
The workshop brought together a group of earthquake engineering experts from Greece, Iran, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia and the United States, and its proceedings are published in the form of this IST Press book. The Workshop constituted a forum for the exchange of research results and ideas on Nonlinear Static Analysis procedures and their applicability for the seismic design/assessment of 3D irregular structures. As such, a number of important NSP-related research topics, found in the body of these Proceedings, were scrutinised and debated.
This book contains the final versions of the invited papers, as well as the main conclusions and recommendations coming from the Workshop. It is therefore hoped that this volume will constitute a valuable and useful contribution to the further development and implementation of nonlinear static methodologies for the seismic assessment and design of irregular structures that may not be analysed by means of planar models.

his text aims to provide students in engineering with a sound presentation of post-calculus mathematics. It features numerous examples, many involving engineering applications, and contains all mathematical techniques for engineering degrees. The book also contains over 5000 exercises, which range from routine practice problems to more difficult applications. In addition, theoretical discussions illuminate principles, indicate generalizations and establish limits within which a given technique may or may not be safely used.

The problem of liquid sloshing in moving or stationary containers remains of great concern to aerospace, civil, and nuclear engineers; physicists; designers of road tankers and ship tankers; and mathematicians. Beginning with the fundamentals of liquid sloshing theory, this book takes the reader systematically from basic theory to advanced analytical and experimental results in a self-contained and coherent format. The book is divided into four sections. Part I deals with the theory of linear liquid sloshing dynamics; Part II addresses the nonlinear theory of liquid sloshing dynamics, Faraday waves, and sloshing impacts; Part III presents the problem of linear and nonlinear interaction of liquid sloshing dynamics with elastic containers and supported structures; and Part IV considers the fluid dynamics in spinning containers and microgravity sloshing. This book will be invaluable to researchers and graduate students in mechanical and aeronautical engineering, designers of liquid containers, and applied mathematicians.

MAIN FEATURES
WS BEAM SCHEDULE takes data from ETABS, after calculating and evaluating based on your preferences, it generates reinforcement values. In addition to that it suggest reinforcement bars for final CAD beam schedule, doing all that in seconds without any space for errors.
1) Easy and clean input by selecting a single report file from ETABS.
2) Automatically selects nearest bar dia for main bars, stirrups and side bars. Checks for maximum side bars spacing.
3) User can increase reinforcement or specify minimum reinforcement values.
4) Automatically distributes torsion reinforcement for stirrups, side bars, top and bottom steel .
5) Takes maximum of top reinforcement at end sections of continuing beam spans.
6) User can specify to make top and bottom reinforcement same, top left and top right same, can select minimum bar dia of main and secondary bars etc.
7) Different types of outputs, can print Area required vs Area provided comparison with values and percentages, can print suggested bars with reinforcement values or only the suggested bars for CAD.
8) Takes beam properties from ETABS properties not from beam names so eliminating the error of dimension difference between ETABS and beam schedule.
9) Eliminating any possibility of error in reinforcement values as it takes the exact values from ETABS, calculates, evaluate and present a final reinforcement value including torsion reinforcement.
10) Takes less than 10 seconds to build the schedule and saves more than 70% of time taken to make manual beam schedule from ETABS.
This guide presents recommendations for materials, analysis, design, and construction of concrete-pedestal elevated water storage tanks. Both the all-concrete tank and the composite tank, consisting of a steel water storage vessel supported on a cylindrical reinforced concrete pedestal, are included.
