This spreadsheet provides values of creep factors, concrete tensile strengths and free shrinkage strains for use with finite element slab design programs that take account of concrete cracking (non-linear analysis). The methods used are those recommended in Concrete Society Technical Report No TR58. With programs that do not account for cracking, substantially higher creep factors should be employed, to allow for the increased displacements caused by cracking and shrinkage.If each stage is analysed with its’ own φ factor and fctm, then ζ and fctm for the critical load case should be used at subsequent stages. If the calculation method employed does not do this, say NO at cell J14. For slabs with nominal or low restraint use fctmfl, and for severe restraint use fctm. An intermediate value may be used.
Prestress is defined as a method of applying pre-compression to control the stresses resulting due to external loads below the neutral axis of the beam tension developed due to external load which is more than the permissible limits of the plain concrete. The pre-compression applied (may be axial or eccentric) will induce the compressive stress below the neutral axis or as a whole of the beam c/s. Resulting either no tension or compression.Prestressed concrete is basically concrete in which internal stresses of a suitable magnitude and distribution are introduced so that the stresses resulting from the external loads are counteracted to a desired degree.
the definitive guide to the theory and practice of water treatment engineering
THIS NEWLY REVISED EDITION of the classic reference provides complete, up-to-date coverage of both theory and practice of water treatment system design. The Third Edition brings the field up to date, addressing new regulatory requirements, ongoing environmental concerns, and the emergence of pharmacological agents and other new chemical constituents in water.
Written by some of the foremost experts in the field of public water supply, Water Treatment, Third Edition maintains the book’s broad scope and reach, while reorganizing the material for even greater clarity and readability. Topics span from the fundamentals of water chemistry and microbiology to the latest methods for detecting constituents in water, leading-edge technologies for implementing water treatment processes, and the increasingly important topic of managing residuals from water treatment plants. Along with hundreds of illustrations, photographs, and extensive tables listing chemical properties and design data, this volume:
A must-have resource for engineers designing or operating water treatment plants, Water Treatment, Third Edition is also useful for students of civil, environmental, and water resources engineering.

This manual Planning and Design of Hydraulic Power Systems attempts to fill the gap. The manual deals with the way in which the components of hydraulic systems work together.
The authors describe exactly what should be involved in the planning, design, manufacture and execution of hydraulic systems.
There are numerous tables, diagrams and illustrations to clarify the functional relationships and interdependent aspects of the systems. They are a very useful aid in day-to-day working.
Practical examples and the principal relevant standards will be found at the end of each chapter. The manual is not only intended for users, it can also be very useful to those undergoing initial training or retraining.
The framework of professional training for hydraulic drive and control technology is constantly expanding.
This manual will prove a valuable aid to those interested in keeping their knowledge of the subject up-to-date.
