Reinforced Concrete - Mechanics And Design- International Edition - 5th Edition
Pearson (2009)
"Reinforced Concrete: Mechanics and Design, 5/e "is a perfect text for professionals in the field who need a comprehensive reference on concrete structures and the design of reinforced concrete. Reinforced concrete design encompasses both the art and science of engineering. This book presents the theory of reinforced concrete as a direct application of the laws of statics and mechanics of materials. In addition, it emphasizes that a successful design not only satisfies design rules, but also is capable of being built in a timely fashion and for a reasonable cost. A multi-tiered approach makes "Reinforced Concrete: Mechanics and Design" an outstanding textbook for a variety of university courses on reinforced concrete design. Topics are normally introduced at a fundamental level, and then move to higher levels where prior educational experience and the development of "engineering judgment" will be required.
S Chand; Revised edition (1 Jan. 1999)
This is the revised edition of the book with new chapters to incorporate the latest developments in the field. The author does hope that with this, the utility of the book will be further enhanced.

Design Of Prestressed Concrete By S. S. Bhavikatti
Prestressed concrete is a structural material that uses steel to create predetermined engineering stresses within concrete members to counteract the stresses that will occur when they are subject to loading. This combines the high strength compressive properties of concrete with the high tensile strength of steel.
In ordinary reinforced concrete, stresses are carried by the steel reinforcement, whereas prestressed concrete supports the load by induced stresses throughout the entire structural element. This makes it more resistant to shock and vibration than ordinary concrete, and able to form long, thin structures with much smaller sectional areas.
Surveying For Engineers Fifth Edition By John Uren
This classic textbook sets out the essential techniques needed for a solid grounding in surveying.
This popular and trusted textbook covers the traditional topics such as levelling, measurement of angles, measuring distances, and how to carry out traversing and compute coordinates, as well as the latest technological advances. It is packed with clear illustrations, exercises and worked examples, making it both a comprehensive study aid for students and a reliable reference tool for practitioners.
This text is aimed at students studying surveying as either part of a civil engineering, building or construction course or as a separate discipline. It is also useful for students who undertake surveying as an elective subject and is a useful resource for practising surveyors.
New to this Edition:
- The latest developments in Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) particularly the introduction of network RTK and OS Net and their applications.
- Recent developments in survey instruments, methods and digital technologies including image processing with total stations and laser planners, developments in data processing and integration and updates on Ordnance Survey mapping products.
Energy Systems And Sustainability: Power For A Sustainable Future By Godfrey
Energy Systems and Sustainability: Power for a Sustainable Future by Godfrey Boyle.
The book begins with an introductory account of the present world energy situation. This is followed by chapters explaining basic energy concepts and describing the magnitudes and patterns of human energy needs. The central part of the book deals with the historical evolution and present status of
conventional fossil- and nuclear-fueled energy systems. These systems, along with hydropower and traditional biofuels, currently supply the majority of the world's commercial energy. In addition, a section on economics describes the basic methods by which the monetary costs of energy are calculated,
and discusses the external costs of energy production. The concluding sections deal with the sustainability problems associated with both fossil and nuclear fuel use, and possible solutions using new technological developments.
Principles Of Geotechnical Engineering Eighth Edition By Braja Das
Principles of Geotechnical Engineering Eighth Edition by Braja Das.
Intended as an introductory text in soil mechanics, Principles of Geotechnical Engineering offers an overview of soil properties and mechanics together with coverage of field practices and basic engineering procedure. Background information needed to support study in later design-oriented courses or in professional practice is provided through a wealth of comprehensive discussions, detailed explanations, and more figures and worked out problems than any other text in the market.
Differential Equations For Engineers And Scientists By Yunus Cengel
Differential Equations for Engineers and Scientists is intended to be used in a first course on differential equations taken by science and engineering students.
It covers the standard topics on differential equations with a wealth of applications drawn from engineering and science--with more engineering-specific examples than any other similar text. The text is the outcome of the lecture notes developed by the authors over the years in teaching differential equations to engineering students.
Like Yunus Cengel's other texts, the material is introduced at a level that a typical student can follow comfortably, and the authors have made the text speak to the students and not over them. Differential Equations for Engineers and Scientists is written in plain language to help students learn the material without being hampered by excessive rigor or jargon. The friendly tone and the logical order are designed to motivate the student to read the book with interest and enthusiasm.
Structural Dynamics Of Turbo-machines By A. S. Rangwala
Structural Dynamics of Turbo-Machines by A. S. Rangwala.
This book presents a detailed and comprehensive treatment of structural vibration evaluation of turbo-machines.
Starting with fundamentals of the theory of vibration as related to various aspects of rotating machines, the dynamic analysis procedures of a broad spectrum of turbo-machines is covered. An in-depth procedure for analyzing the torsional and flexural oscillations of the components and of the rotor-bearing system is presented. The latest trends in design and analysis are presented.
Organic Reactions And Their Mechanism Fifth Edition By P. S. Kalsi
Organic Reactions and Their Mechanism Fifth Edition by P. S. Kalsi.
There are six main types of reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry. These include substitution, addition, elimination, rearrangement, radical, and re-dox reactions.
Reaction mechanisms describe not only the electron movement that occurs in a chemical reaction, but also the order in which bond-breaking and bond-forming events occur.
This book discusses more on organic reactions and their mechanisms.
