Traffic Engineering (4th Edition)

Traffic Engineering, 4e, is ideal for a one/two-semester undergraduate survey, and/or for graduate courses on Traffic Engineering,

Highway Capacity Analysis, and Traffic Control and Operations.

This unique text focuses on the key engineering skills required to practice traffic engineering in a modern setting.

It includes material on the latest standards and criteria of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (2003 Edition and forthcoming 2010 Edition),

the Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (2004 Edition), the Highway Capacity Manual (2000 Edition and forthcoming 2010 Edition), and other critical references.

It also presents both fundamental theory and a broad range of applications to modern problems.

Principles of Pavement Engineering

Principles of pavement engineering offers sound engineering understanding to those learning, practising or researching in this field.

It is concerned with the basic principles underlying material behaviour, pavement design and maintenance, and will allow the reader to move beyond a mere following of design standards and become able to tackle problems outside the scope of such requirements.

Concrete Pavement Design Guidance Notes

This comprehensive design guide summarizes current developments in the design of concrete pavements.

Following an overview of the theory involved, the authors detail optimum design techniques and best practice, with a focus on highway and infrastructure projects.

Worked examples and calculations are provided to describe standard design methods, illustrated with numerous case studies.

The author provides guidance on how to use each method on particular projects,

with reference to UK, European and US standards and codes of practice.

Concrete Pavement Design Guidance Notes is an essential handbook for civil engineers, consultants and contractors involved in the design and construction of concrete pavements, and will also be of interest to students of pavement design.

Airport Engineering

First published in 1979, Airport Engineering by Ashford and Wright, has become a classic textbook in the education of airport engineers and transportation planners.

Over the past twenty years, construction of new airports in the US has waned as construction abroad boomed.

This new edition of Airport Engineering will respond to this shift in the growth of airports globally, with a focus on the role of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO),

while still providing the best practices and tested fundamentals that have made the book successful for over 30 years.

Design of Hydraulic Gates

This second edition of Design of Hydraulic Gates maintains the same goal as the original:

to be used as a textbook and a manual of design of gates, presenting

the main aspects of design, manufacture, installation and operation of hydraulic gates, while introducing new products, technologies and calculation procedures.

This edition included new chapters on intake gates and trashrack design, highlighting the aspects of safety, operational and maintenance procedures.

To improve the strength against structural failure of intake trashracks, the author proposes a series of rigid calculation assumptions, design parameters and manufacturing procedures, which will certainly result in safer trashracks.

Some 340 drawings and photographs, 82 tables, 107 references and 23 worked examples help the reader to understand the basic concepts and calculation methods presented.

Bridge Hydraulics

The design of bridges across rivers and streams is a major component of many civil engineering projects.

The size of waterways must be kept reasonably small for reasons of economy and yet

be large enough to allow floods to pass.

Bridge Hydraulics is the first book to consider both arched and rectangular waterway openings in detail and to describe all of the main methods of analysis.

With clear examples and relevant case studies, using both laboratory models and full- size bridges in the field,it is not only a thorough and accessible introduction to bridge hydraulics,

but also a guide that will enable engineers to produce authoritative analyses and more effective designs.

Combined Joints in Steel Connection Ebook

Combined_Joints in Steel Connection Ebook gives essential guidance for structural steelwork connections for use in buildings. They have been produced by the SCI/BCSA Connections Group, which was established in 1987 to bring together academics, consultants and steelwork contractors to work on the development of authoritative design guides for structural steelwork connections.

Simple connections

SCI P358 (2014 reprint) provides procedures for designing joints in steel-framed structures in accordance with BS EN 1993-1-8 and its accompanying National Annex, and with BS EN 1993-1-1 and its National Annex. Connections between beams and columns using non-preloaded and preloaded bolts are included. Connections between beams and hot finished structural hollow section columns using the Flowdrill and Hollo-Bolt systems are also incluhttps://www.steelconstruction.info/Steel_construction_products#Structural_hollow_sectionsded. Design procedures are provided for:

Beam to beam and beam to column connections
Column splices
Column bases
Bracing connections
Special connections

The revisions in the 2014 reprint include revised tying resistances for full depth end plates for deeper beams, revised resistances for RHS bases, an additional example using blind bolts, revised guidance for bracing connections and typographical corrections. Revisions are marked with a black line in the margin.

Construction Management of Steel Construction

This educational manual was developed for the American Institute of Steel Construction

(AISC) to present the principal project management activities and issues for procuring and

implementing steel construction.

The manual was developed for use in undergraduate university level construction

management programs.

It should also be useful in project management courses in construction engineering,

civil engineering, architectural engineering, and architecture programs.

The manual is intended as a supplemental text which may be incorporated

into junior and senior level projectmanagement, estimating, and scheduling courses.

The manual was developed in two educational modules: Module One addresses

project management activities and Module Two examines scheduling

and estimating issues that pertain to steel construction.

Both educational modules have been designed to help students understand

the unique roles and relationships of the general contractor, steel fabricator,

erector, specialty contractors, suppliers, architect, structural engineer, and

owner in the construction of a structural steel building frame.

While the manual has been specifically developed to address steel construction,

many of the issues presented are also applicable to the management of other

construction subcontracts.

Therefore, this manual may serve as a detailed case study of steel construction which

will help students achieve a broader understanding of construction project management, estimating, and scheduling practices.

It is hoped that faculty teaching this material, will find this steel case study useful as they present the principles of project management, estimating, and scheduling in their courses.

THE BEHAVIOUR AND DESIGN OF STEEL STRUCTURES TO EC3 (4th EDITION)

The fully revised fourth edition of this successful textbook fills a void which will arise when British designers start using the European steel code EC3 instead of the current steel code BS5950.

The principal feature of the forth edition is the discussion of the behaviour of steel structures and the criteria used in design according to the British version of EC3.

Thus it serves to bridge the gap which too often occurs when attention is concentrated on methods of analysis and the sizing of structural components.

Because emphasis is placed on the development of an understanding of behaviour, many analytical details are either omitted in favour of more descriptive explanations, or are relegated to appendices.

The many worked examples both illustrate the behaviour of steel structures and exemplify details of the design process.

The Behaviour and Design of Steel Structures to EC3 is a key text for senior undergraduate and graduate students, and an essential reference tool for practising structural engineers in the UK and other countries.
