Practical Civil Engineering PDF Book

Practical Civil Engineering PDF Book

 

The book provides primary information about civil engineering to both a civil and non-civil engineering audience in areas such as construction management, estate management, and building. Basic civil engineering topics like surveying, building materials, construction technology and management, concrete technology, steel structures, soil mechanics and foundations, water resources, transportation and environment engineering are explained in detail. Codal provisions of US, UK and India are included to cater to a global audience. Insights into techniques like modern surveying equipment and technologies, sustainable construction materials, and modern construction materials are also included.

Key features:
  • Provides a concise presentation of theory and practice for all technical in civil engineering.
  • Contains detailed theory with lucid illustrations.
  • Focuses on the management aspects of a civil engineer’s job.
  • Addresses contemporary issues such as permitting, globalization, sustainability, and emerging technologies.
  • Includes codal provisions of US, UK and India.

Soft Clay Engineering And Ground Improvement PDF

Soft Clay Engineering And Ground Improvement PDF

 

This book covers the design and implementation of ground improvement techniques as applicable to soft clays in the eyes of experienced geotechnical personnel, from academics to practitioners.

Soft soils and ground improvement have become major challenges to geotechnical engineers during the last three decades. Planners, architects, consultants, and contractors are now aware what soft soil is and the risks associated with development in areas where soft soil is encountered. They know that ‘good’ land is limited and, therefore, marginal lands need to be improved.
