Concrete Design Book and Handbook
| Cox Architects: Selected and Current Works THE MASTER ARCHITECT SERIES Books Nippan | ISBN 1875498176 | 1994 | PDF | 222 pages | 79.15 MB THE MASTER ARCHITECT SERIES is a series of monographs on some of the greatest architects and architectural firms of our time. The Cox Group of architects is one of the most prominent practices of the last forty years of Australian architecture. Beginning with work by Philip Cox in Sydney in the 1960s, it developed through a series of projects for the National Capital Development Commission in Canberra in the seventies and early eighties and expanded through Australia. In recent years there have been an increasing number of large overseas projects. The breadth of work is impressive – from houses to hospitals, bus shelters to urban planning. Impressive, too, is the assurance of the work, and how much of it reflects and has influenced what has come to be regarded as characterising recent Australian architecture: steel and glass and masonry articulated in bright light, with a spirit of informal but controlled inventiveness and sometimes complex but always carefully coordinated geometry. THE MASTER ARCHITECT SERIES Books Nippan | ISBN 1875498176 | 1994 | PDF | 222 pages | 79.15 MB ~ Architecture in Europe since 1968: Memory & Innovation Alexander Tzonis Rizzoli | 1992 | PDF | 312 pages | 113.05 MB Winner of an American Institute of Architects Award, this book surveys twenty years of a period characterized by conflict between tradition and invention, modern and anti-modern, and by an abundance of disparate design solutions. The epoch begins with the completion in 1972 of the first commissions embodying the ideas that sprang out of the events of 1968--a year when student unrest and political upheaval crystallized new intellectual and cultural attitudes. It ends in the early 1990s, a time when both Modernism and earlier traditions began to be reappraised. Over seventy-five projects are presented, with critical essays, photographs, drawings, site diagrams, and construction details. Extensive documentation includes background data on each project, bibliographies, and biographies, with contributions from Jean-Louis Cohen, Lucius Burckhardt, Fritz Neumeyer, and Peter Rice Architecture in Europe since 1968: Memory & Innovation Alexander Tzonis Rizzoli | ISBN: 0847816249 | 1992 | PDF | 312 pages | 113.05 MB ~ Composite Structures of Steel & Concrete Beams, Slabs, Columns, Frames for Buildings This book sets out the basic principles of composite construction with reference to beams, slabs, columns and frames, and their applications to building structures.

Muir-Wood Publisher: Spon Press Publication Date: 2001-11-30 Number Of Pages: 480 This book begins by presenting some of the models which form a part of the typical undergraduate geotechnical curriculum. There is then a description of some of the aspects of soil behavior which contribute to the challenge of geotechnical modelling. The book is derived from courses given to M level students (postgraduate and final year undergraduate MEng students). A familiarity with basic soil mechanics and with traditional methods of geotechnical design is assumed. The book will also be useful to practising engineers who find themselves involved in the specification of numerical or physical geotechnical modelling. ~ Architectural Design: New Working Spaces English/Spanish | Links International | ISBN 84-89861-18-8 | PDF | 235 pages | 34.84 MB New Working Spaces features architecture created for the tertiary sector which has become a hot topic at present. The application of new computer technologies has caused a revolution in the way that we work, which in turn has caused a revolution in the way are accommodated at work. As this book demonstrates a more pleasant working environment is being created through the application of criteria such as intelligent construction, ergonomics, improved air conditioning systems, new cladding methods, ecological efficiency, health concerns, and control of light intensity ~ 1000 Wood working Tips Every woodworker and wood finisher has experienced the frustration of trying to describe the peculiar merits of a particular finish to his customers or to his fellow craftsmen.Words fail because the essence of a fine finish is sensory—one appreciates it through the fingertips and the eyes. My answer is a collection of finish samples, which I have been developing and refining for the past three years. Constant questions from my refinishing students and patrons forced me to develop it as a tangible answer; my system should work qually well for the amateur craftsman or the professional Type: PDF Lang: English Page:Several books ~ Home Repair Most homeowners don't pay much attention to their roof until rain or melting snow starts to leak through it—then it demands immediate action. But if you periodically inspect your roof, you can correct minor problems before they become serious enough to cause damage.
