Inhaltsangabe

Construction Engineering Calculations and Rules of Thumb begins with a brief, but rigorous, introduction to the mathematics behind the equations that is followed by self-contained chapters concerning applications for all aspects of construction engineering. Design examples with step-by-step solutions, along with a generous amount of tables, schematics, and calculations are provided to facilitate more accurate solutions through all phases of a project, from planning, through construction and completion.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

In a world of plug and play, many construction engineers have no real idea of the inner working of a calculation or the process as a whole, knowing the right calculation is 90% of being successful. Construction Engineering Calculations and Rules of Thumb begins with a brief but rigorous introduction to the mathematics behind the equations followed by self-contained chapters concerning applications for all aspects of Construction Engineering. Design examples with step by step solutions along with a generous amount of tables, schematics, and calculations are provided to facilitate more accurate solutions through all phases of a project from planning through construction to completion.

With this reference in hand, Construction Engineers and Designers have an useful guide to the formulas and equations used in: Concrete and Steel Construction, Earthwork construction and layout, Foundations, Mechanics of Materials and Material Quality Control and Production. Design examples with step by step solutions along with a generous amount of tables, schematics, and calculations are provided to facilitate more accurate solutions.
