First Edition: The methods and equipment technology employed in the deep foundation industry have improved rapidly in recent years. The ingenuity of civil engineers, the results of new scientific research and the ongoing and new developments in machine technology have all led to the acceleration of this process. Applying technologies that have become very complex, and selecting the suitable machinery and equipment, demand ever more specialized knowledge and practical experience. It has become very difficult for users and manufacturers of special deep foundation machinery to maintain an overview of the level of technology in the sector. This compendium provides a comprehensive overview of the special deep foundation applications and processes. It is intended as an aid to planning and implementation, and aims to help practitioners, public authorities, engineering companies and students to broaden and complete their level of knowledge. It is targeted primarily at occupational engineers and applications in the field. The individual chapters discuss manufacturing techniques and potential applications, along with the associated machine components. The specifics of each method and machine technology are examined in detail. This special deep foundation compendium is the result of intensive collaboration between engineers, technicians, practitioners, machine manufacturers and users.

Second Edition: The first edition with two volumes has become standard reference books for special deep foundation methods and equipment technology. The new edition is not only a merger of Volume I and II. It also comprises new chapters to cover the complete spectrum of special deep foundation. Also, as part of this revision, all machine data were updated so that planners, authorities, engineers, technicians and students may use the compendium's state-of-the-art data and parameters. Once again, credits for authorship go to the specialists of BVV Spezialtiefbautechnik Vertriebs GmbH, Munich. The new ?Compendium Special Deep Foundation? reflects their comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of the market, their know-how of up-to-date methods and their experience with global application practice. The new compendium provides a comprehensive overview of special deep foundation methods, equipment and applications. It is designed as a tool for planning and implementation, and helps practitioners, public authorities, engineering companies and students broaden and complete their level of knowledge

SoilOffice-Foundation v5.12 [Size: 21.8 MB] ... “SO-Foundation” calculates bearing capacity of shallow foundations considering both “shear failure” and “settlement”. Hansen, Meyerhof, Vesic, Terzaghi and Eurocode methods are employed for the determination of shear failure. Elastic and consolidation settlements can be calculated using various options. Features: Introduction of up to 20 soil layers. Correlation of soil parameters (to be added soon). User is informed about the common ranges regarding input parameters. Pressure isobars are calculated and generated below footings. Determination of bearing capacity of shallow footings (Spread, Continuous and Mat) with different dimensions considering both shear failure and settlement (Elastic and Consolidation). Calculation of settlement corresponding to the allowable pressure. Calculation of modulus of subgrade reaction. Calculation and generation of modulus of subgrade reaction contour on the footing surface. Exporting results to MS Excel format. Presentation of calculation report with sufficient details. Creation of profiles for the desired settings. Saving files with a minimal size.

This book will deal with different sections associated with bending, buckling and vibration of nanobeams and nanoplates along with systematic description of handling the complexities when nanoscales are considered. The introduction includes basic ideas concerned with nanostructures, the algorithms and iterations followed in numerical methods and introduction to beam and plate theories in conjunction with nonlocal elasticity theory applied in nanostructures. Next, the investigation of nanobeams and nanoplates subjected to different sets of boundary conditions based on various nonlocal theories will be included. The varieties of physical and geometrical parameters that influence the bending, buckling and vibration mechanisms will be summarized. Finally, effect of environments such as thermal environment, Winkler–Pasternak elastic foundations and non-uniformity etc. on the buckling and vibration mechanisms will be illustrated.

Robin Barry's Construction of Buildings was first published in 1958 in 5 volumes, rapidly becoming a standard text on construction. In its current 2 volume format Barry remains hugely popular with both students and lecturers of construction and related disciplines. The third edition of Barry's Advanced Construction of Buildings expands and deepens your understanding of construction technology. It covers the construction of larger-scale buildings (primarily residential, commercial and industrial) constructed with load bearing frames, supported by chapters on fit-out and second fix, lifts and escalators, off-site construction and a new chapter on building obsolescence and revitalisation. Functional and performance requirements of the main building elements are emphasised throughout, as is building efficiency and meeting the challenges of limiting the environmental impact of buildings. You will find the text fully up to date with the latest building regulations and construction technologies. The new edition, with supporting material at www.wiley.com/go/barrysintroduction, is an ideal information source for developing a wider and deeper understanding of construction technology.
