reading precast: Precast Concrete Structures Alfred Steinle, Hubert Bachmann, Mathias Tillmann, 2019-01-28 Der Betonfertigteilbau ist eine der innovativsten Bauweisen - hier werden neue Betone, Bewehrungen und Herstellverfahren erstmals angewendet, denn das Fertigteilwerk bietet hervorragende Voraussetzungen für die industrielle Herstellung. Dieses Buch führt in die Bauweise ein und vermittelt alles notwendige Wissen für die Konstruktion, Berechnung und Bemessung. Auch die geschichtliche Entwicklung und der Stand der europäischen Normung werden aufgezeigt. Der Dreh- und Angelpunkt für den wirtschaftlichen und fehlerfreien Einsatz von Betonfertigteilen ist der fertigungs- und montagegerechte Entwurf. Neben den zu beachtenden Randbedingungen werden typische Fertigteilkonstruktionen zur Diskussion gestellt. Die Verbindungen der Betonfertigteile sind gerade bei Horizontallasten besonders zu beachten, daher wird die Aussteifung von Fertigteilgebäuden ausführlich behandelt. Besonderheiten der Bemessung, z. B. Lager, Konsolen und Stützenstöße, werden detailliert dargestellt. Ein zunehmend wichtiger Anwendungsbereich für Betonfertigteile ist der Fassadenbau, welchem ein eigenes Kapitel gewidmet ist. Abschließend wird auf die Fertigung eingegangen, um beim Leser das Verständnis für die Bauweise zu vertiefen. Für die vorliegende 2. Auflage wurde das Werk vom erweiterten Autorenteam komplett überarbeitet. Das Buch ist eine Einführung und ein praktisches Arbeitsmittel mit Beispielen für Bauingenieure und Architekten gleichermaßen. |

reading precast: Precast Concrete Structures Kim S. Elliott, 2019-08-08 This second edition of Precast Concrete Structures introduces the conceptual design ideas for the prefabrication of concrete structures and presents a number of worked examples that translate designs from BS 8110 to Eurocode EC2, before going into the detail of the design, manufacture, and construction of precast concrete multi-storey buildings. Detailed structural analysis of precast concrete and its use is provided and some details are presented of recent precast skeletal frames of up to forty storeys. The theory is supported by numerous worked examples to Eurocodes and European Product Standards for precast reinforced and prestressed concrete elements, composite construction, joints and connections and frame stability, together with extensive specifications for precast concrete structures. The book is extensively illustrated with over 500 photographs and line drawings. |

reading precast: Tunnel Boring Machines: Trends in Design and Construction of Mechanical Tunnelling A. Schulter, H. Wagner, 2020-08-26 In the past ten years there was a worldwide trend towards increased use of Tunnel Boring Machines (TBM's). This trend covers a broad variety of applications ranging both from small diameters for sewers and other utilities to large diameters for double track railway and even three-lane highway tunnels. The response to this has been the development of both hard rock machines in the direction for application in soft ground, and soft ground TBM's to be used in soft rock. Parallel to the technical development of TBM's towards applications for longer tunnels, running through changing geological conditions, there are needs for the development of lining methods. 'TBM Tunnel Trends' an international lecture serie collection, aims to present the latest scientific and practical state of the art of TBM tunnelling, taking into consideration interactions between machinery and lining. 26 international highly recognized papers. |

reading precast: PRESTRESSED CONCRETE GHOSH, KARUNA MOY, 2014-01-01 This book addresses an overall approach presenting comprehensive principles and description of the analysis and design of prestressed concrete members, from its initial design concepts, analysis, to the construction stage. The structural components are analyzed and designed to conform to the requirements of Eurocodes, [that are similar to Indian Standard Codes] followed throughout the world. In order to elaborate on the concept of prestressed concrete, seven different cases are dealt with in this book to add an analytical approach to the subject. The concepts explained are well-supported with the mathematical derivations and problem formulations. Illustrative figures and tables further help in making understanding of the concepts easier. The book serves as a reference for the undergraduate students of civil and structural engineering. |

reading precast: Trajectories in Architecture Michael Jasper, 2023-04-21 Trajectories in Architecture: Plan, Sensation, Temporality presents a compelling examination of underlying issues in late-twentieth-century architecture. Three formal preoccupations and conceptual orientations are used as guiding threads or trajectories. These three trajectories – the plan as conceptual device, a logic of sensation, and temporalities – serve to organise individual chapters in the central sections of the book and provide a new lens to the study of period work, revealing architectural conditions and consequent spatial effects little explored to date. Trajectories in Architecture adds to scholarship and expands our understanding of the role of conceptual and formal criteria in the analysis and creation of works of architecture. The book provides potentially transformative new interpretations of influential architects and key projects from the last half of the twentieth century to reveal new alignments and potentialities in architecture’s recent past as a contribution to identifying future possibilities. In so doing, the book argues for the still-latent potential in modern architecture’s traditions and design principles and their future expression. Trajectories in Architecture includes analysis of significant projects of Le Corbusier, Peter Eisenman, Zaha Hadid, John Hejduk, Louis I. Kahn, and I. M. Pei. |
reading precast: Earthquake Engineering Handbook Charles Scawthorn, Wai-Fah Chen, 2002-09-27 Earthquakes are nearly unique among natural phenomena - they affect virtually everything within a region, from massive buildings and bridges, down to the furnishings within a home. Successful earthquake engineering therefore requires a broad background in subjects, ranging from the geologic causes and effects of earthquakes to understanding the impact of these effects on foundations, buildings, structures, the infrastructure, and even their social and economic impact. The Earthquake Engineering Handbook is a comprehensive resource that covers the spectrum of topics relevant to designing for and mitigating earthquakes. In it, international experts present engineering practices, research, and developments in North America, Europe, and the Pacific Rim countries. The emphasis is on professional applications, with discussion ranging from basic dynamics and geoscience to new technologies intended to avoid rather than resist the forces of earthquakes. Covering both traditional and innovative practices, the Earthquake Engineering Handbook is the first professional reference that brings together all of earthquake engineering's many facets. Formulas, tables, and illustrations give immediate answers to questions arising in practice, and summaries of the essential elements of each topic paint a global picture from which readers can develop understanding and the ability to think beyond the results presented. |
