Author: D. Ajitha Simha, et el | Size: 44.2 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Bureau of Indian Standards, New Delhi | Year: 1997 | pages: 507 | ISBN: 81-7061-048-6
This Handbook has been written with a view to unifying the constructional practices being followed by various organizations engaged in construction of residential, commercial and industrial buildings and is mainly based on various Indian Standards published in the respective areas of construction. The Handbook provides information regarding methods of construction of any particular element of the building using different materials so that a designer/site engineer can choose the most appropriate material(s) and method(s) of construction as per his needs. Besides, it is hoped that this Handbook would be of great help to students of Civil Engineering.

Architecture, which can be understood in its most basic sense as a form of enclosure created with an aesthetic intent, first made its appearance in the Prehistoric Age. From its earliest developments, architecture changed over time and in different cultures in response to changing cultural needs, aesthetic interests, materials, and techniques.
The Historical Dictionary of Architecture provides information on architects like Frank Lloyd Wright, Tadao Ando, Leon Battista Alberti, Filippo Brunelleschi, Michelangelo, and Konstantin Stepanovich Melnikov, as well as on famous structures like the Acropolis, the Colosseum, the Forbidden City, Machu Pichu, Notre Dame, the Pyramids of Giza, Stonehenge, and the World Trade Center. The dictionary examines the development of architecture over the centuries through a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on the major architects, well-known buildings, time periods, styles, building types, and materials in world architecture.

Hi Friends,
Hope everybody is OK. I have got a job offer from a structural engineering firm based in Manhattan. They have following offer.
1- Annual Compensation of $65,000.
2- Medical/Dental/Vision/Prescription.
3- 15 Paid time off.
4 - No paid over time (though I have to work overtime).
5- No advantage if I get PE ( I am waiting for the exam result)
About my experience.
1- 4.5 yrs. experience as structural engineer from Pakistan
2- Worked with a contractor in NY for more than 3 years as project manager.
3- Unemployed these days, I left the job because of personal reasons, was getting $84,000 from that contractor.
4- Well familiar with ACI 318-08 and AISC LRFD 13th Ed.
5- Familiar with Finite Element Analysis Softwares ( Etabs and Staad Pro) and AutoCAD/Revit Structure
6- MS (structural engineering) from Ivy League College with GPA of 4.
7- Already taken PE Exam, Confident that I'll pass it.
8- Already earning about the same they have offered me by working with contractors ( preparing schedules, shop drawings, estimates etc.)
Personally I don't think that this is a good offer but I also acknowledge that I do not have structural engineering experience from USA.
So do you think it’s a good offer? It's not that I badly need a job but it’s just that I want to work on some high-rise projects.
Anybody from USA please guide me.
I have to reply them today ( 4pm EST) so early response will be highly appreciated.
Update 1-
Just got the PE result and I have passed it.
Heating and Water Service Design in Buildings has been written following thirteen years in the industry and twenty seven years teaching and consultancy work. The author has worked with college students, university undergraduates and open learning candidates of all ages.

1.1 This test method2 covers the determination of Young’s modulus, tangent modulus, and chord modulus of structural materials. This test method is limited to materials in which and to temperatures and stresses at which creep is negligible compared to the strain produced immediately upon loading and to elastic behavior.
1.2 Because of experimental problems associated with the establishment of the origin of the stress-strain curve described in 8.1, the determination of the initial tangent modulus (that is, the slope of the stress-strain curve at the origin) and the secant modulus are outside the scope of this test method.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory requirements prior to use.
