The Canada Centre for Mineral and Energy Technology (CANMET) of Natural Resources Canada, Ottawa, has played a significant role in Canada for over 40 years in the broad area of concrete technology. In recent years, CANMET has become increasingly involved in research and development dealing with supplementary cementing materials, high-performance normal-weight and lightweight concretes, and alkali-aggregate reactions. In May 2004, CANMET, in association with the American Concrete Institute and several other organizations in the United States, sponsored the Seventh CANMET/ACI International Conference on Recent Advances in Concrete Technology in Las Vegas, U.S.A. Seventeen refereed papers from more than 10 countries were presented and distributed at the conference. The proceedings consisting of refereed papers were published as ACI SP-222.

This work presents a unified approach to the vibrations of elastic systems as applied to MEMS devices, mechanical components, and civil structures. Applications include atomic force microscopes, energy harvesters, and carbon nanotubes and consider such complicating effects as squeeze film damping, viscous fluid loading, in-plane forces, and proof mass interactions with their elastic supports. These effects are analyzed as single degree-of-freedom models and as more realistic elastic structures. The governing equations and boundary conditions for beams, plates, and shells with interior and boundary attachments are derived by applying variational calculus to an expression describing the energy of the system. The advantages of this approach regarding the generation of orthogonal functions and the Rayleigh-Ritz method are demonstrated. A large number of graphs and tables are given to show the impact of various factors on the systems’ natural frequencies, mode shapes, and responses.

Investigation of the Kansas City Hyatt Regency Walkways Collapse
Author: R.D. Marshall, E.O. Pfrang, E.V. Leyendecker, K.A. Woodward | Size: 55.1 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: National Bureau of Standards, Building Science Series 143 | Year: May 1982 | pages: 377 | ISBN: -
An investigation into the collapse of two suspended walkways within the atrium area of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Kansas City, Mo., is presented in this report. The investigation included on-site inspections, laboratory tests and analytical studies.
Three suspended walkways spanned the atrium at the second, third, and fourth floor levels. The second floor walkway was suspended from the fourth floor walkway which was directly above it. In turn, this fourth floor walkway was suspended from the atrium roof framing by a set of six hanger rods. The third floor walkway was offset from the other two and was independently suspended from the roof framing by another set of hanger rods. In the collapse, the second and fourth floor walkways fell to the atrium floor, with the fourth floor walkway coming to rest on top of the lower walkway.
Based on the results of this investigation, it is concluded that the most probable cause of failure was insufficient load capacity of the box beam-hanger rod connections. Observed distortions of structural components strongly suggest that the failure of the walkway system initiated in the box beam-hanger rod connection on the east end of the fourth floor walkway's middle box beam.

The specifications, plans, and standard sheets state the requirements of embankment construction in precise terms. This guide is intended to describe less technically and hopefully, more understandably; how to construct an embankment. The guide discusses,
Embankment Foundation
Embankment
Compaction Control
Moisture – Density – Strength Relationship
Proof Rolling
Embankment Failure
Winter Earthwork
Reference is made throughout the guide to the Standard Specifications, standard sheets, plans, proposals and various procedure manuals. It is intended that the guide will stimulate the reader to study these sources

Theory of Arched Structures: Strength, Stability, Vibration presents detailed procedures for analytical analysis of the strength, stability, and vibration of arched structures of different types, using exact analytical methods of classical structural analysis. The material discussed is divided into four parts. Part I covers stress and strain with a particular emphasis on analysis; Part II discusses stability and gives an in-depth analysis of elastic stability of arches and the role that matrix methods play in the stability of the arches; Part III presents a comprehensive tutorial on dynamics and free vibration of arches, and forced vibration of arches; and Part IV offers a section on special topics which contains a unique discussion of plastic analysis of arches and the optimal design of arches.
