In this page asdd-engineering.com team will try to help you and provide you with latest published books and journals related to civil engineering and engineering in general.
However, what's new in this section that if you have a book and you need to switch that book with other engineer asdd-team can help you in this matter free of charge...
For example, you have a handbook for steel design ASIC and you need to switch temporary with CISC handbook which other engineer has, so you can do that by sending your request to Contact Us or post it on asdd-forums...
asdd-team will post every weekend three new books and will recommend one book as well...
Earthquake
Design Practice for Buildings, 2nd edition
Authors:
E. Booth; D. Key
ISBN 10 =
0727729470
ASCE
MEMBER $105 (NON $140)
Abstract:
This book provides comprehensive, practical and easy to
read advice for all engineers, designers and analysts of
earthquake resistant structures. The entire text is
completely revised to account for the many developments
that have taken place since the publication of the best
selling first edition in 1988. This includes advances in
the understanding of how structures and the soils that
support them respond to ground shaking, development of
new robust forms of earthquake resistant construction,
and improved forms of analysis and assessment. The scope
includes buildings in concrete, steel, timber and
masonry; site effects, soil liquefaction and foundation
design. Extensive references are made to the recently
published European seismic code, Eurocode 8 and to US
seismic codes and standards There are also chapters on
seismic analysis, the retrofit of existing buildings,
building contents and seismic isolation
Modeling Complex Engineering Structures
Authors: Robert Melchers (Editor);Richard Hough (Editor)
ISBN 10 = 0784408505
ISBN 13 = 9780784408506
ASCE MEMBER $90 (NON $ 120)
Abstract: Developments in numerical methods and higher speed computing are providing rapid advances in the analysis and design of complex structures – so rapid that it can be difficult for engineers to keep abreast of this expanding knowledge. Modeling Complex Engineering Structures provides an overview of cutting edge developments in computational theory and techniques as currently applied in various fields of structural analysis, in the United States and around the world. Individual contributors discuss research and practice in diverse but related applications such as high-rise buildings, lightweight long span roofs, bridges, geotechnical structures, aging nuclear structures, offshore structures, automobiles, aircraft, and ships. By presenting a state-of-the-art view across so many applications of structural analysis, Modeling Complex Engineering Structures encourages the cross fertilization of modeling approaches, computational techniques, and performance assessment analyses from one engineering discipline to another, making this book an essential reference for analysts and designers from all disciplines.
