Twenty-Sixth International Congress on Large Dams / Vingt-Sixième Congrès International des Grands Barrages 4th - 6th July 2018 Vienna Austria

Twenty-Sixth International Congress on Large Dams / Vingt-Sixième Congrès International des Grands Barrages 4th - 6th July 2018 Vienna Austria

The International Committee on Large Dams (ICOLD) held its 26th International Congress in Vienna Austria (1-7 July 2018). The proceedings of the congress focus on four main questions: 1. Reservoir sedimentation and sustainable development; 2. Safety and risk analysis; 3. Geology and dams and 4. Small dams and levees. The book thoroughly discusses these questions and is indispensable for academics engineers and professionals involved or interested in engineering hydraulic engineering and related disciplines. | Twenty-Sixth International Congress on Large Dams / Vingt-Sixième Congrès International des Grands Barrages 4th - 6th July 2018 Vienna Austria

The Design and Layout of Fire Sprinkler Systems

The Design and Layout of Fire Sprinkler Systems

Although effective fire sprinkler systems are crucial to public safety for years the designers of those systems had few published resources to reference and guide them through their design processes. The first edition of this book changed all that and now The Design and Layout of Fire Sprinkler Systems Second Edition suits their needs even better. Written and thoroughly updated by a fire prevention engineer with more than 20 years of experience this book provides a complete systematic introduction to automatic fire sprinkler design and layout from design basics code requirements and pipe hanging to hydraulic calculations retrofits and details on fire pumps. The author carefully outlines all of a designer's responsibilities and includes an entire chapter dedicated to preparing for the NICET exam. More than 150 sample diagrams checklists sample forms spec sheets photographs and a glossary complement the text and the larger page size of this edition permits clear presentation of diagrams and schematics. The Design and Layout of Fire Sprinkler Systems not only builds the foundation and skills of newcomers to the field but also provides an outstanding reference for fire safety professionals building inspectors insurance underwriters and municipal officials.

Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Since the first implementation by Electricité de France on the Goulours dam (France) in 2006 the Piano Key Weir has become a more and more applied solution to increase the discharge capacity of existing spillways. In parallel several new large dam projects have been built with such a flood control structure usually in combination with gates. Today more than 25 Piano Key Weirs are in operation or under construction all over the world. More than 15 years of research and development have enabled detailed investigations of the hydraulic and structural behaviour of the Piano Key Weir complex structure and have provided more and more accurate design equations. Following the proceedings of the first two workshops held in Liege (Belgium – 2011) and Paris (France – 2013) Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III collects the contributions presented by people with varied background from researchers to practitioners at the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs - PKW 2017 (22-24 February 2017 Qui Nhon Vietnam). The papers reviewed and accepted by an International Scientific Committee summarize the current state-of-the-art on Piano Key Weirs from a theoretical to a practical point of view and present most of the main projects in operation or under construction. Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III is thus a reference for students practitioners and researchers interested in Dams Engineering. | Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Engineered Concrete Mix Design and Test Methods Second Edition

Engineered Concrete Mix Design and Test Methods Second Edition

As every civil engineer knows Portland Cement is the most versatile and important material of construction and will probably remain so far into the future. Yet few books if any exist that offer an in-depth analysis of the mixing and testing methods of this vital hydraulic cement. This statement written about the first edition of Engineered Concrete: Mix Design and Test Methods remains as true today as it was ten years ago. Revised and updated the second edition of this groundbreaking resource completely covers Portland Cement Portland Cement Concrete and their uses. See what‘s new in the Second Edition: New coverage of the latest concrete technologies such as high-performance and lightweight concrete Several new tests and sample tearsheets Additional and updated data sheets The body of the book is divided into several sections with the first explaining how concrete batches are designed mixed and measured for various consistencies. Another section details the tests of the primary component materials of concrete other than water namely Portland Cement aggregates and mortar while the final section includes some of the fundamental concrete testing procedures for different strength parameters in conformity with the standards of the American Society for Testing Materials. Solidly researched and written the book supplies a fundamental understanding of cement concrete and mixing and testing methods that allow readers to produce the most economical combinations of concrete materials and satisfy performance requirements and specifications. | Engineered Concrete Mix Design and Test Methods Second Edition

The Angkorian World

The Angkorian World

The Angkorian World explores the history of Southeast Asia’s largest ancient state from the first to mid-second millennium CE. Chapters by leading scholars combine evidence from archaeology texts and the natural sciences to introduce the Angkorian state describe its structure and explain its persistence over more than six centuries. Comprehensive and accessible this book will be an indispensable resource for anyone studying premodern Asia. The volume’s first of six sections provides historical and environmental contexts and discusses data sources and the nature of knowledge production. The next three sections examine the anthropogenic landscapes of Angkor (agrarian urban and hydraulic) the state institutions that shaped the Angkorian state and the economic foundations on which Angkor operated. Part V explores Angkorian ideologies and realities from religion and nation to identity. The volume’s last part reviews political and aesthetic Angkorian legacies in an effort to explain why the idea of Angkor remains central to its Cambodian descendants. Maps graphics and photographs guide readers through the content of each chapter. Chapters in this volume synthesise more than a century of work at Angkor and in the regions it influenced. The Angkorian World will satisfy students researchers academics and the knowledgeable layperson who seeks to understand how this great Angkorian Empire arose and functioned in the premodern world. The Prologue and Chapters 2 10 15 23 30 and 32 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www. taylorfrancis. com under a Creative Commons (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4. 0 license.
