Degrees of Belief
Observing at a risk analysis conference for civil engineers that participants did not share a common language of probability, Vick, a consultant and geotechnic engineer, set out to not only examine why, but to also bridge the gap. He reexamines three elements at the core of engineering the concepts
Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge
Prepared by the Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge 3 Task Committee of the Committee on Education of the American Society of Civil Engineers.The American Society of Civil Engineers defines the Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge as the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes required of an individual entering the practice of civil engineering at the professional level.Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge: Preparing the Future Civil Engineer, Third Edition outlines 21 foundational, technical, and professional practice learning outcomes for individuals entering the professional practice of civil engineering. Recommendations for fulfilling the outcomes through formal education, both at the undergraduate and post-graduate levels, and mentored early career experience are provided.Topics includeFoundational course education,Engineering fundamentals,Engineering technical skillsEngineering curriculum development, and Business and professional skills and responsibilities.This book will be of interest to students and early-career civil engineers as well as the professors who teach engineering and practicing engineers who mentor and develop new engineers within their organizations.
Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures
Standard ASCE/SEI 7-22 provides requirements for general structural design and includes means for determining various loads and their combinations, which are suitable for inclusion in building codes and other documents.
Engineering Iron and Stone
Boothby presents a comprehensive explanation of the empirical, graphical, and analytical design techniques used during the late nineteenth century in the construction of both buildings and bridges in wood, stone, brick, and iron.
Beyond Failure
Norbert Delatte presents the circumstances of important failures that have had far-reaching impacts on civil engineering practice, organized around topics in the engineering curriculum.
Handbook for the Seismic Evaluation of Buildings
Provides a process for seismic evaluation of existing buildings in any region of seismicity. Buildings are evaluated to either the Life Safety or Immediate Occupancy Performance Level. Provides instruction to the evaluating design professional on how to determine if a building is adequately designed and constructed to resist seismic forces. All aspects of building performances are considered in terms of foundation/geologic, structural, hazard, nonstructural issues. Reflects advancements in technology; incorporates design professional experience; incorporates lessons learned during recent earthquakes; and much more.
Seismic Loads
Authors Charney, Heausler, and Marshall provide clear, authoritative explanations of the seismic design provisions contained in Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures, Standard ASCE/SEI 7-16.
Managing Gigaprojects
Galloway, Nielsen, and Dignum assemble a stellar group of financial, legal, and construction professionals who share lessons learned and best practices developed from working on the world's biggest infrastructure construction projects.
Public Speaking for Engineers
Veis takes readers step-by-step through the process of planning, preparing, and delivering a presentation of technical material to a nontechnical audience.
