Engineering

An elegant, simple and theoretically coherent design framework. Students users will benefit from the coverage of seismology, structural dynamics, reinforced concrete members, and capacity design approaches, which allows the book to be used as a foundation text in earthquake engineering - to both ACI 318 and Eurocode 8.

This book aims to bridge the gap that currently exists between the geotechnical/geo-environmental and geophysical engineering community. It is a comprehensive handbook for the application of Resistivity Imaging in geotechnical and geo-environmental site investigations.

Segmental concrete bridges offer expedited construction with minimal traffic disruption, lower life cycle costs, appealing aesthetics and adaptability to a curved roadway alignment. This design-oriented book suits junior bridge engineers and advanced students, with simple design examples based on the AASHTO LRFD Design Specifications.

Summarizes smart technologies like IoT, edge computing, and AI used in different aspects of waste material management, mitigation, and recycling for a sustainable environment. A collection of practical case studies, this book provides comprehensive knowledge in smart waste management to readers in universities, research centers, and industries.

This book reviews technologies, evaluation methods, and applications of self-healing cementitious materials and examines concrete structures based on various materials with self-repair capability and their implications for the future use in sustainable projects.

This book presents state-of-the-art theoretical background and practical applications for bridge safety, maintenance and management in a life-cycle context. This book can help students, researchers and practitioners to build up knowledge on life-cycle bridge performance and cost management.

Provides guidance in the form of design aids, indications for the most convenient design procedures and worked examples. This title addresses the common rules and rules for buildings, including structural fire design.

CESMM4 Revised: Examples provides a comprehensive range of example Bills of Quantities, based on Section 8, Work Classification, of the Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement (CESMM).
