Snow Engineering: Recent Advances
The objective of the conference was to provide a forum for engineers, architects and scientists to discuss a broad range of research and design methods for various problems related to snow engineering. Specialists in building and civil engineering, environmental engineering, energy engineering, urban planning, and regional development as well as snow scientists were brought together for the conference. The technical sessions were in five thematic areas as follows: Snow technology and science; Building and construction engineering; Infrastructure and transportation; Housing and residential planning; Development strategy in snow countries. The 115 papers provide keys to realize more comfortable living conditions in snow countries and to overcome many problems in heavy snow regions.
Composite Structures of Steel and Concrete
This book sets out the basic principles of composite constructionwith reference to beams, slabs, columns and frames, and theirapplications to building structures. It deals with the problemslikely to arise in the design of composite members in buildings,and relates basic theory to the design approach of Eurocodes 2, 3and 4. The new edition is based for the first time on the finalisedEurocode for steel/concrete composite structures.
The Book of Lost Names
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Inspired by an astonishing true story from World War II, a young woman with a talent for forgery helps hundreds of Jewish children flee the Nazis in this unforgettable historical novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the “epic and heart-wrenching World War II tale” (Alyson Noel, #1 New York Times bestselling author) The Winemaker’s Wife. Eva Traube Abrams, a semi-retired librarian in Florida, is shelving books one morning when her eyes lock on a photograph in a magazine lying open nearby. She freezes; it’s an image of a book she hasn’t seen in sixty-five years—a book she recognizes as The Book of Lost Names. The accompanying article...
Designers' Guide to EN 1994-1-1
EN 1994-1-1, also known as Eurocode 4, is a standard of the Eurocode suite. This guide provides the user with guidance on the interpretation and use of EN 1994-1-1 through worked examples in relation to rules for buildings, structural fire design and for bridges. It is useful for civil and structural engineers, code-drafting committees, and more.
Visual Encounters in the Study of Rural Childhoods
Visual Encounters in the Study of Rural Childhoods brings together visual studies and childhood studies to explore images of childhood in the study of rurality and rural life. The volume highlights how the voices of children themselves remain central to investigations of rural childhoods. Contributions look at representations and experiences of rural childhoods from both the Global North and Global South (including U.S., Canada, Haiti, India, Sweden, Slovenia, South Africa, Russia, Timor-Leste, and Colombia) and consider visuals ranging from picture books to cell phone video to television.
Designers' Guide to Eurocode 4: Design of Composite Structures EN 1994-2
EN 1994-2 is one standard of the Eurocode suite & describes the principles & requirements for safety, serviceability & durability of composite steel & concrete bridges. This guide provides the user with guidance on the interpretation & use of EN 1994-2 through worked examples in relation to the general rules & the rules for bridges.
Effective Slab Width for Composite Steel Bridge Members
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 543: Effective Slab Width for Composite Steel Bridge Members examines recommended revisions to the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials' specifications for the effective slab width of composite steel bridge members. The report's recommended specifications are applicable to all types of composite steel bridge superstructures and are suitable for design office use. Accompanying CRP-CD-56 contains extensive supporting information, including the recommended specifications and design examples.
The History of the Theory of Structures
Zehn Jahre nach der 1. Auflage in englischer Sprache legt der Autor sein Buch The History of the Theory of Structures in wesentlich erweiterter Form vor, nunmehr mit dem Untertitel Searching for Equilibrium. Mit dem vorliegenden Buch lädt der Verfasser seine Leser zur Suche nach dem Gleichgewicht von Tragwerken auf Zeitreisen ein. Die Zeitreisen setzen mit der Entstehung der Statik und Festigkeitslehre eines Leonardo und Galilei ein und erreichen ihren ersten Höhepunkt mit den baustatischen Theorien über den Balken, Erddruck und das Gewölbe von Coulomb am Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts. Im folgenden Jahrhundert formiert sich die Baustatik mit Navier, Culmann, Maxwell, Rankine, Mohr, Castiglia...
Fatigue Design of Steel and Composite Structures
This volume addresses the specific subject of fatigue, a subject not familiar to many engineers, but still relevant for proper and good design of numerous steel structures. It explains all issues related to the subject: Basis of fatigue design, reliability and various verification formats, determination of stresses and stress ranges, fatigue strength, application range and limitations. It contains detailed examples of applications of the concepts, computation methods and verifications.
