Features
Introduces soil ageing as a process that affects the long-term nature of soils and their properties and behaviours
Presents the concepts of soil quality and soil functionality as tools and criteria in soil and geoenvironmental engineering
Examines the effect on soils from natural environmental forces (such as earthquakes, floods, acid rain) and anthropogenic activities (waste discharge, generation of greenhouse gases, construction and mining activities, etc.)
Discusses the mechanical, thermal, and hydraulic properties of soils and their role in the development of soil functionality
Addresses the role of soils in land disposal and containment of wastes
Explains the important interaction between soil particles and water with regards to mechanical and transfer properties, buffering capability, and storage for agricultural and drinking water
Includes more than 170 illustrations and 190 equations
Summary
From bridges and tunnels to nuclear waste repositories, structures require that soils maintain their design engineering properties if the structures are to reach their projected life spans. The same is true for earth dams, levees, buffers, barriers for landfills, and other structures that use soils as engineered materials. Yet soil, a natural resource, continues to change as a result of natural and anthropogenic stresses. As the discipline of soil properties and behaviours matures, new tools and techniques are making it possible to study these properties and behaviours in more depth.

This excel workbook is used to calculate the torsional stresses and rotations at any point (as well as their maximum values) along steel members either simply supported or fixed ended and subjected to either multi-point torsional moments or uniformly distributed torsion. The analysis is carried out in accordance with AISC design guide # 9.

Urban Design and the Bottom Line: Optimizing the Return on Perception
Author: Dennis Jerke | Size: 189 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: Urban Land Institute | Year: November 1, 2008 | pages: 260 (131 Dual scann) | ISBN: 087420996X, ISBN-13: 978-0874209969
Using verifiable figures and drawing on professional experience, this argument for the "dividend" generated from high-quality, preinvestment design investigates the benefits and impact of good design upon all facets of an urban area—the community, businesses, employees, the general public, city officials, and the developer.
