Structural Engineering Soil Liquefaction

Textbook

Random Vibration

A Critical State Approach, Second Edition

Mechanical, Structural, and Earthquake Engineering Applications

Mike Jefferies Golder Associates (UK), Canada

Zach Liang and George C. Lee

Ken Been

University at Buffalo, State University of New York, USA

Golder Associates, Houston, Texas, USA

Series: Advances in Earthquake Engineering

Soil liquefaction occurs when soil loses much of its strength or stiffness. It can occur during earthquakes, landslides, or even traffic-induced vibration. The first edition of this book made its mark, and this significantly expanded new edition is updated on a range of issues. It now includes “numerical wheels” to give guidance on design calculations as well as on soil behavior. It provides more worked examples and more detailed derivations to suit graduate students. In addition, software is provided online.

Most textbooks on random vibration are mathematically intensive, and often difficult for senior/graduate students to digest in the learning period of a single semester course. This book is designed to focus on basic methodologies to handle random processes in engineering practices.

Based on teaching experience, this book can help students to directly gain the necessary knowledge and basic concepts of random processes, which used to be very difficult through math-intensive logic-rigorous training with conventional textbooks.

Building Information Modeling

Tall Building Design

Framework for Structural Design

Steel, Concrete, and Composite Systems

Nawari O. Nawari and Michael Kuenstle

Bungale S. Taranath

University of Florida, Gainesville, USA

Chino Hills, California, USA

This book focuses on how engineers and architects can benefit from new frameworks and technologies by reviewing the building information management (BIM) concept, discussing how BIM will affect education and practice, evaluating current BIM technology, exploring critical issues for best practices in BIM environments, and reviewing fundamentals of architectural and structural analysis under the new framework. The book provides professionals and students with the necessary knowledge and tools to assist them in understanding architectural structures and utilizing BIM to offer practical design solutions.

This book examines the behavior of structural members and systems to aid in the structural design of tall buildings in conjunction with the latest building codes. These code provisions are subject to change periodically. Familiarity with current methodologies is essential to designing structures that comply with legally adapted standards in a safe, economic, and efficient manner.

However, the first nine chapters explain the fundamental principles of structural engineering in such a manner as to be entirely independent of code regulations.

Modular construction can dramatically improve efficiency in construction, through factory production of preengineered building units and their delivery to the site either as entire buildings or as substantial elements. The required technology and application are developing rapidly, but design is still in its infancy. Good design requires knowledge of modular production, installation, and interface issues as well as an understanding of the economics and client-related benefits that influence design decisions. Looking at eight recent projects, this guide offers coverage of all aspects of modular design. http://www.crcpress.com/product/isbn/9780415554503 Print ISBN: 978-0-415-55450-3 eBook ISBN: 978-0-203-87078-5 February 2014, 8-1/2 x 11, 280 pp Suggested Price: $99.95 / £60.00

Mechanics of Solids and Structures Second Edition

Self-Consolidating Concrete Applying what we know

Roger T. Fenner Imperial College London, UK

Joseph A. Daczko

J.N. Reddy

BASF, USA

Texas A&M University, College Station, USA

Self-consolidating, or self-compacting, concrete (SCC) uses mixture proportioning techniques and admixture technology to create a concrete mixture with increased fluidity, thereby avoiding the need for mechanical consolidation/vibration.

SCC mixtures with various performance levels can be produced in the laboratory, but the know-how is sometimes lacking to do this on site. This book presents a foundation for consistently producing and applying SCC in a daily production environment. It links science with practical application and will be useful for both new practitioners and those already using SCC.

Finite-Element Modelling of Structural Concrete Short-Term Static and Dynamic Loading Conditions Michael D. Kotsovos National Technical University of Athens, Greece

Textbook

Principles of Reinforced Concrete Design Mete A. Sozen, Toshikatsu Ichinose, and Santiago Pujol

This book presents a finite-element model of structural concrete under short-term loading. It outlines a finite-element method for the prediction of the strength, deformation, and cracking patterns of arbitrary structural concrete forms under a wide range of loading conditions. It also includes numerous examples that show both the unifying generality of this proposed approach and the reliability of the ensuing numerical procedure for which the sole input is the specified uniaxial cylinder compressive strength of concrete and the yield stress of the steel.

The book covers fundamental concepts related to mechanics and direct observation, and those required to design reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Codes change over time depending on factors that have little to do with the fundamental concepts mentioned, and have more to do with the markets, construction practices, and transient academic views. For beginning engineers it is difficult to distinguish between rules based on consensus (codes) and fundamentals.

This book focuses on the latter to prepare use and adaptation to the constant changes of the former.

Unsaturated Soil Mechanics in Geotechnical Practice

Geosystems

Geoffrey E Blight

Edited by

University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa

Adam Bezuijen and E.W. Vastenburg

There are other books on unsaturated soil mechanics, but this book is different. In most climatic zones, rainfall varies during the year and the depth of the water table varies sympathetically. In applying unsaturated soil mechanics in practice, it is therefore important to realize and allow for the probability that soil will, either seasonally or occasionally, pass from the unsaturated to the saturated state and even from unsaturation to dryness. This is the only book that looks specifically at this essential practical aspect.
