Concrete Engineers' Handbook
by George Hool, Nathan C. Johnson - McGraw-Hill , 1918 This handbook has been prepared to make available the best of present day knowledge concerning concrete and reinforced concrete and to present complete data and details for the design and construction of the principal types of concrete structures. Science Pertaining To Civil Engineering - International TextBook Company , 1927 The book is written clearly and in the simplest language possible. This volume covers fundamental principles of mechanics, analytic statics, kinematics and kinetics, hydrostatics, pneumatics, and rudiments of analytic geometry. Concise Hydraulics by Dawei Han - BookBoon , 2008 Introductory textbook on hydraulics written for undergraduate students in civil and environmental engineering, environmental science and geography. The aim of this book is to provide a concise and comprehensive coverage of hydraulics. Robotics and Automation in Construction by C. Balaguer, M. Abderrahim - InTech , 2008 The authors discuss the main research challenges of Robotics and Automation in Construction (RAC), the technologies and new developments employed to automate processes in the construction industry, and give case studies of RAC. Earthquake Engineering for Concrete Dams - National Academies , 1990 In this book, current knowledge about the earthquake performance of concrete dams is evaluated, including procedures for investigating the seismic safety. The book informs researchers about state-of-the-art earthquake analysis of concrete dams. Tongue and Groove Roof Decking - AWC , 2003 Timber tongue and groove decking is a specialty lumber product that can be used for many applications to provide an all-wood appearance. This document contains all that's needed to design and construct tongue and groove wood roof decking. Practical Astronomy by George L. Hosmer - John Wiley and Sons Inc. , 1925 The text is adapted to the needs of civil-engineering students. The text deals chiefly with the class of observations which can be made with surveying instruments, the methods applicable to astronomical and geodetic instruments being treated briefly. The Mechanical Properties of Wood by Samuel J. Record , 1914 This book was written primarily for students of forestry to whom a knowledge of the technical properties of wood is essential. The mechanics involved is reduced to the simplest terms and without reference to higher Roller Coaster Physics by Tony Wayne - VAST , 1998 This text discusses some of the principles involved in the design of a roller coaster. It is intended for the middle or high school teacher, and physics students. Many of the concepts can be applied to topics other than roller coasters. Basic Concepts in Turbomachinery by Grant Ingram - BookBoon , 2009 This free textbook is intended to complement existing literature by providing more detail on some of the very basics aspects of how turbomachinery operates. A series of problems are provided at the end of each chapter with numerical Practical Astronomy for Engineers by Frederick Hanley Seares - Stephens , 1909 The main purpose of the volume is an exposition of the principal methods of determining latitude, azimuth, and time. Generally speaking, the limit of precision is that corresponding to the engineer's transit or the sextant. Modern Masonry: Natural Stone and Clay Products - National Academies Press , 1956 The edited papers and discussions of a research correlation conference. From the table of contents: Architectural Design; Technology of Building with Masonry; Research and New Technical Developments; Costs and Maintenance; Building Type Principles of Highway Engineering by Carroll Carson Wiley - McGraw-Hill , 1928 This volume has been prepared for use in college courses in highway engineering. Although intended, primarily, for beginning courses, it will be found of value as an auxiliary and reference book in advanced courses in design and Monitoring of Internal Moisture Loads in Residential Buildings by Lois Arena, Pallavi Mantha - PD&R , 2010 This research project has collected 1 full year of indoor temperature and humidity data for a sample of 60 homes across three different climate regions - the hot and humid Southeast (Zone 2), the cold Northeast (Zone 5), and the marine Plank-And-Beam Framing for Residential Buildings - American Wood Council , 2003 The book presents technical data that will be helpful to architects, engineers and builders. It covers the principles of design, construction details, and requirements for the plank-and-beam method of framing, including span and load Methods and Techniques in Urban Engineering by A. C. de Pina Filho and A. C. de Pina - InTech , 2010 Topics covered: urban automation; geographic information systems; urban noise, floods and transports; information technology applied to the cities; tools for urban simulation, social monitoring and control of urban policies; sustainability; Computer Analysis & Reinforced Concrete Design of Beams by Fady R. S. Rostom - Fadzter Media , 2008 This project deals with the creation of a computer application that analyzes and designs structural beams. The project also aims at emphasizing the importance of computers in the solution of everyday engineering Concrete and Reinforced Concrete by W. Noble Twelvetrees - I. Pitman , 1922 This book sets forth the essential nature of concrete, describes the materials of which it is composed, the manner in which these materials are proportioned and mixed, the methods adopted in practice for the application of the product, Design of Wood Frame Structures for Permanence - AWC , 2006 When properly designed, wood frame structures will resist damage by moisture and living organisms. Recommendations for control of moisture and protection against decay and insect infestations are contained in this Heavy Timber Construction - AWC , 2004 Heavy timber construction is one of the oldest types of buildings. This publication defines the requirements for heavy timber construction, and provides illustrations of good construction details. Written for architects and Elementary Applied Mechanics by A. W. Thomson, T. Alexander - MacMillan , 1916 The work forms an elementary consecutive treatise on the subject of Internal Stress and Strain. The whole is illustrated by a systematic and graduated set of Examples. At every point graphical methods are combined with the Project Management for Construction by Chris Hendrickson, Tung Au - Prentice Hall , 1989 This book develops a specific viewpoint in discussing the participants, the processes and the techniques of project management for construction. This viewpoint is that of owners who desire completion of projects in a timely, cost effective Details for Conventional Wood Frame Construction - ICC , 2001 A comprehensive summary of rules and guidelines for the proper construction of wood frame buildings. The book includes information on various types of construction, framing systems, fire and draftstopping, protection against decay, etc. Seismic Design for Buildings - Dept. of the Army , 1982 This manual provides criteria and guidance for the design of structures to resist the effects of earthquakes. It takes a general approach for the seismic design of buildings. Primary emphasis is given to the equivalent static force design procedure. |
