The Design of Prestressed Concrete Bridges: Concepts and Principles
The Design of Prestressed Concrete Bridges: Concepts and Principles
Robert Benaim,
2008 | PDF | 608 pages | 14 MB
Examining the fundamental differences between design and analysis, Robert Benaim explores the close relationship between aesthetic and technical creativity and the importance of the intuitive, more imaginative qualities of design that every designer should employ when designing a structure.
Aiding designers of concrete bridges in developing an intuitive understanding of structural action, this book encourages innovation and the development of engineering architecture. Simple, relevant calculation techniques that should precede any detailed analysis are summarized. Construction methods used to build concrete bridge decks and substructures are detailed and direct guidance on the choice and the sizing of different types of concrete bridge deck is given. In addition guidance is provided on solving recurring difficult problems of detailed design and realistic examples of the design process are provided.
This book enables concrete bridge designers to broaden their scope in design and provides an analysis of the necessary calculations and methods.

Modern Architecture and the Mediterranean
Modern Architecture and the Mediterranean
Jean-Francois Lejeune, Michelangelo Sabatino,
English | 2009 | 320 pages | PDF | 12,5 MB
Bringing to light the debt twentieth-century modernist architects owe to the vernacular building traditions of the Mediterranean region, this book considers architectural practice and discourse from the 1920s to the 1980s. The essays here situate Mediterranean modernism in relation to concepts such as regionalism, nationalism, internationalism, critical regionalism, and postmodernism - an alternative history of the modern architecture and urbanism of a critical period in the twentieth century.

Construction Drawings and Details for Interiors: Basic Skills, 2 edition
Construction Drawings and Details for Interiors: Basic Skills, 2 edition
Rosemary Kilmer, W. Otie Kilmer ,
2009 | | EPUB | 320 pages | 23 MB
Construction Drawings and Details for Interiors serves as the essential reference for designers preparing interior construction documents, explaining how to do a new construction, remodeling, or installation project. In a highly visual format, the book covers drafting fundamentals and conventions; drawing types, plans, and schedules; and computer-aided design (CAD). With expanded coverage of the preparation and communication of construction documents in digital formats, drawing interior perspectives, and more, the text also serves as an invaluable study reference for the contract documents section of the NCIDQ exam.
Building Codes for Existing and Historic Buildings
Building Codes for Existing and Historic Buildings
Melvyn Green,
Wiley | | 2011 | 266 pages | PDF | 3,20 MB
Learn to apply the International Building Code and International Existing Building Code to historic buildings
Written for architects, engineers, preservation, and code enforcement professionals, this is the only comprehensive book that examines how the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Existing Building Code (IEBC) can be applied to historic and existing buildings. For ease of use, the book is organized to parallel the structure of the IEBC itself, and the approach is cumulative, with the objective of promoting an understanding of the art of applying building regulations to the environment of existing buildings.
Building Codes for Existing and Historic Buildings begins with a discussion of the history of building regulations in the United States and the events and conditions that created them.
Next, it provides thorough coverage of:
- The rationale behind code provisions and historic preservation principles
- Major building code requirements: occupancy and use, types of construction, and heights and areas
- Building performance characteristics: fire and life safety, structural safety, health and hygiene, accident prevention, accessibility, and energy conservation
- Case study projects that reinforce the material covered
Additionally, the book includes building analysis worksheets—both blank and filled-in versions with examples—that illustrate how to develop a code approach for an individual building. If you are a professional at any level who is working on creating a plan that meets the intent of the code for historic or existing buildings, Building Codes for Existing and Historic Buildings gives you everything that you need to succeed.
