Description Using a design-oriented approach that addresses geotechnical, structural, and construction aspects of foundation engineering, this book explores practical methods of designing structural foundations, while emphasizing and explaining how and why foundations behave the way they do. It explains the theories and experimental data behind the design procedures, and how to apply this information to […]

Description This book provides the beginning engineer with the principles of rubber science and technology: what rubber is, how it behaves, and how to design engineering components with rubber. It introduces the reader to the principles on which successful use of rubber depends and offers solutions to the questions engineers in rubber processing face every

Description This doctoral thesis presents a novel approach to landslide risk assessment that explores the various dimensions of landslide risk in an integrated perspective. The research approach introduced here is tailored for use with landslide databases and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). A landslide susceptibility model is at the heart of this new approach, enabling to

Description As the ever-changing skylines of cities all over the world show, tall buildings are an increasingly important solution to accommodating growth more sustainably in today’s urban areas. Whether it is residential, a workplace or mixed use, the tower is both a statement of intent and the defining image for the new global city. The

Description The term ‘cladding’ refers to components that are attached to the primary structure of a building to form non-structural, external surfaces. This is as opposed to buildings in which the external surfaces are formed by structural elements, such as masonry walls, or applied surfaces such as render. Building Safety Fund for the remediation of

Description The bridge design phase is probably the most fascinating and most difficult task for an experienced engineer if the design is original design and not industrial/repetitive work. It is unnecessary to provide the definition of the bridge design process, list the various steps required, and detail the bureaucratic procedures involved in this context. Instead,

Description Apurba Tribedi is a senior director at Bentley Systems Inc. He leads a highly skilled multinational team to create and market new software and services for the Telecom industry. After graduating as a civil engineer, he joined Research Engineers as a software analyst and soon became the lead engineer programmer for the world’s leading

Description Advanced Geodynamics brings the unique perspective of a leading geophysicist to the solution of a wide array of problems in geodynamics. The approach emphasizes the use of advanced mathematics, in particular the Fourier transform, to obtain a quantitative understanding of the processes involved in shaping the Earth’s surface. The advanced mathematical approach not only

Description Geotechnical earthquake engineering currently plays one of the most important roles among the disciplines of civil engineering. Following the 1964 Niigata and the 1999 Kocaeli and Duzce destructive earthquakes, the topic of geotechnical earthquake engineering has become of crucial importance. At the Opening Session of the International Conference on Recent Advances in Geotechnical Earthquake
