Design of Reinforced Concrete, Jack C. McCormac, 9th Edition (2013) - Free Books

Jack C. McCormac and Russell H. Brown, "Design of Reinforced Concrete: ACI 318-11 Code Edition, 9 edition"
English | ISBN: 1118129849 | 2013 | PDF | 713 pages | 15 MB

The Ninth Edition of this bestselling book continues the successful tradition of earlier editions by introducing the fundamentals of reinforced concrete design in a clear and understandable manner. Numerous examples of the principles discussed are included. This edition includes revisions made by the American Concrete Institute in Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (318-08) and Commentary (318R-08). The text was prepared for an introductory three credit hour undergraduate course on reinforced concrete design. Nevertheless, sufficient material is included so that this textbook can be used for a second additional three credit hour undergraduate course. Further, this text is also useful for practicing engineers as it presents the latest requirements of the ACI design code.

Fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis, David V. Hutton (2003)

Publication Date: June 25, 2003 | ISBN-10: 0072922362 | ISBN-13: 978-0072922363 | Edition: 1

This new text, intended for the senior undergraduate finite element course in mechanical, civil and aerospace engineering departments, gives students a solid, practical understanding of the principles of the finite element method within a variety of engineering applications.

Hutton discusses basic theory of the finite element method while avoiding variational calculus, instead focusing upon the engineering mechanics and mathematical background that may be expected of senior engineering students. The text relies upon basic equilibrium principles, introduction of the principle of minimum potential energy, and the Galerkin finite element method, which readily allows application of finite element analysis to nonstructural problems.

The text is software-independent, making it flexible enough for use in a wide variety of programs, and offers a good selection of homework problems and examples.

A Book Website is also included, with book illustrations for class presentation; complete problem solutions (password protected); the FEPC 2-D finite element program for student use; instructions on FEPC and its use with the text; and links to commercial FEA sites.

Project Management for Engineers and Construction, 2nd Edition, Garold Oberlender (2000)

Main description

The purpose of this book is to present the principles and techniques of project management, beginning with the conceptual phase by the owner, through coordination of design and construction, to project completion.

Throughout this book the importance of management skills is emphasized to enable the user to develop his or her own style of project management. The focus is to apply project management at the beginning of a project, when it is first approved. Too often the formal organization to manage a project is not developed until the beginning of the construction phase. This book presents the information that must be assembled and managed during the development and engineering design phase to bring a project to successful completion by the owner.

Table of contents

Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Working with Project Teams Chapter 3: Project Initiation Chapter 4: Early Estimates Chapter 5: Project Budgeting Chapter 6: Development of Work Plan Chapter 7: Design Proposals Chapter 8: Project Scheduling Chapter 9: Project Tracking Chapter 10: Design Coordination Chapter 11: Construction Phase Chapter 12: Project Close Out Chapter 13: Tips for Making Things Happen Chapter 14: Total Quality Management Appendix A: Example Project Appendix B: EJCDC Documents Appendix C: AIA Documents Appendix D: AGC Documents
