This book contains 73 schemes of trusses, with solutions for many not widely published. It identifies trusses with hidden dangerous properties and provides compact formulas for engineers and theorists to supplement numerical calculations, especially for complex structures.
This text contains 73 schemes of statically definable trusses, including girder trusses, frames and arched trusses, solutions for many of which have not been widely published. Among these, it is possible to separately distinguish trusses with externally hidden but dangerous properties.
The book will appeal to both practical engineers and theorists of structural mechanics. It provides a number of compact and easily reproducible formulas that can be used both as a test and as reliable additions to numerical calculations. These formulas are especially effective for trusses with a large number of panels, where numerical calculations are either inaccurate or require considerable counting time.
Reinforced concrete columns play a very important role in structural performance; as such, it is essential to apply a suitable analytical tool to estimate their structural behaviour and consider failure mechanisms. This monograph focuses on fiber beam-column elements.
This book assesses the risks of debris flows in Georgia, calculating the damage they cause. It presents innovative, patented structures to regulate them, designed using theoretical, laboratory, and field studies to ensure reliability. For scientists, engineers, and students.
This book proposes a quantitative shaking evaluation for seismic-resistant buildings, with guidance to calculate the shaking quantity scale. It also demonstrates using Artificial Intelligence to predict this scale, which is highly important for earthquake early warning systems.
This book provides the fundamentals of analysis and design of reinforced concrete (RC) elements in a simple way. A valuable guide for students and practicing engineers, its design procedures provide a roadmap to create your own programming codes to increase design productivity.
This book details 72 statically determinate truss schemes, providing compact formulas for deflection. For engineers and theorists, these formulas are a reliable test for numerical calculations, are especially effective for large trusses, and warn of hidden dangerous properties.
Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) uses prefabricated elements to reduce on-site construction time and traffic disruptions. This book examines ABC for short-span bridges, covering decision-making, systems, inspection methods, and a complete design example.
This book details an innovative finite element (FE) formulation for post-tensioned (PT) concrete. It provides MATLAB code to simulate bonded, unbonded, or partially bonded tendons, including sliding, friction, and anchor seating loss, with reduced computational power.
Drawing on 31 years of experience, this book guides readers in designing safe and cost-effective structures. It includes numerical examples in both SI and US units for components like beams, columns, slabs, and shear walls, plus considerations for dynamic loads like earthquakes.
This book presents unique, modern, and cost-effective seismic isolation strategies to make existing buildings earthquake-proof. Learn how these highly efficient methods can be implemented quickly, easily, and without interrupting building use, demonstrated on real-world examples.
