Book excerpt: Bridges 101 is for the non-Billy Grahams among us…for those who would like to share their faith in Christ but are not comfortable doing so. A reader from New Jersey bought the book, then wrote, “Thank you for your book, Bridges 101. I bought it because it seemed to be the answer to my desire to know how to reach out to others without fainting!” Maybe you have felt that way, too. An estimated 85% of those who attend church claim that they are there because of the influence of a friend or relative and not because someone cornered them and “convinced” them. A key truth developed in the book is, “The kingdom advances among friends.” Yet so many find it difficult to know what to say or what to do. Here is help. Here is courage. Courage to be contagious rather than aggressive. Maybe you’ve never attended a Bathroom Party? Most people haven’t but you’ll learn how Ruthie Jacobsen and her husband used a bathroom remodel in their home to create a low-stress witnessing event. Did you know that feeding coins in someone’s expired parking meter can be a “witnessing event?” Eleven-time author Ruthie Jacobsen has written a book that will bring a smile to your face. Bridges 101 is filled with stories of simple, non-threatening, joyous ways to build bridges, caring bridges, to those with whom they wish to share their faith in Christ. Each of the eleven chapters opens up possibilities you may never have thought of.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for large-scale bridges is constantly growing due to the enormous infrastructure development around the world. Since the 1970s many of them have been cable-stayed bridges. In 1975 the largest span length was 404 m, in 1995 it increased to 856 m, and today it is 1104 m. Thus the economically efficient range of cable-stayed bridges is tending to move towards even larger spans, and cable-stayed bridges are increasingly the focus of interest worldwide. This book describes the fundamentals of design analysis, fabrication and construction, in which the author refers to 250 built examples to illustrate all aspects. International or national codes and technical regulations are referred to only as examples, such as bridges that were designed to German DIN, Eurocode, AASHTO, British Standards. The chapters on cables and erection are a major focus of this work as they represent the most important difference from other types of bridges. The examples were chosen from the bridges in which the author was personally involved, or where the consulting engineers, Leonhardt, Andrä and Partners (LAP), participated significantly. Other bridges are included for their special structural characteristics or their record span lengths. The most important design engineers are also presented. Note: The lecture videos which are attached to the print book on DVD are not part of the e-book.

Book excerpt: Building Bridges is the inspiring true story of Rudrapratab and his team of engineers, whose dedication and talent lead to the ideation and development of India’s first bridge management system. Witnessing early on in life the tragic and wasteful loss of lives that bridge collapses cause sparks in Rudrapratab a burning passion for bridge safety. He devotes his life to creating a comprehensive, state-of-the-art digitised system that can inspect and repair bridges, as well as offer timely interventions to prolong the lives of the structures across the length and breadth of the country. Along with associate Ajit, Rudrapratab builds an able team of engineers whose meticulous research forms the basis of the beta inventory module of the Indian Bridge Management System. Rudra’s journey, however, is fraught with bureaucratic hurdles. When a reticent administration repeatedly turns down his proposals for a bridge management system, he nearly gives up on his dream before Minister Gadkari’s office steps up to the plate. This eye-opening book looks back on the bumpy yet rewarding journey of a bunch of tenacious engineers who aspire to create a modern India with the most advanced bridge surveillance and management system and envision a future where no life would ever be lost again because of faulty bridges.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1920s and 1930s, Oregon's legendary bridge engineer Conde B. McCullough designed a first-rate collection of aesthetic bridges on the Oregon Coast Highway to enhance an already dramatic and beautiful landscape. The six largest of these, at Gold Beach, Newport, Waldport, Florence, Reedsport, and Coos Bay, eliminated the last ferries on the Oregon Coast Highway between the Columbia River and California. McCullough planned to build one bridge each year after completion of the Rogue River Bridge at Gold Beach in 1932, but the tightening grip of the Depression threatened his plans. In 1933, McCullough and his staff worked day and night to finish plans for the remaining five bridges, and in early 1934, the Public Works Administration funded simultaneous construction of them. The combined projects provided approximately 630 jobs, but at least six workers perished during construction. After the bridges were complete, Oregon coast tourism increased by a dramatic 72 percent in the first year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chicago River Bridges presents the untold history and development of Chicago's iconic bridges, from the first wood footbridge built by a tavern owner in 1832 to the fantastic marvels of steel, concrete, and machinery of today. It is the story of Chicago as seen through its bridges, for it has been the bridges that proved critical in connecting and reconnecting the people, industry, and neighborhoods of a city that is constantly remaking itself. In this book, author Patrick T. McBriarty shows how generations of Chicagoans built (and rebuilt) the thriving city trisected by the Chicago River and linked by its many crossings. The first comprehensive guidebook of these remarkable features of Chicago's urban landscape, Chicago River Bridges chronicles more than 175 bridges spanning 55 locations along the Main Channel, South Branch, and North Branch of the Chicago River. With new full-color photography of the existing bridges by Kevin Keeley and Laura Banick and more than one hundred black and white images of bridges past, the book unearths the rich history of Chicago's downtown bridges from the Michigan Avenue Bridge to the often forgotten bridges that once connected thoroughfares such as Rush, Erie, Taylor, and Polk Streets. Throughout, McBriarty delivers new research into the bridges' architectural designs, engineering innovations, and their impact on Chicagoans' daily lives. Describing the structure and mechanics of various kinds of moveable bridges (including vertical-lift, Scherer rolling lift, and Strauss heel trunnion mechanisms) in a manner that is accessible and still satisfying to the bridge aficionado, he explains how the dominance of the "Chicago-style" bascule drawbridge influenced the style and mechanics of bridges worldwide. Interspersed throughout are the human dramas that played out on and around the bridges, such as the floods of 1849 and 1992, the cattle crossing collapse of the Rush Street Bridge, or Vincent "The Schemer" Drucci's Michigan Avenue Bridge jump. A confluence of Chicago history, urban design, and engineering lore, Chicago River Bridges illustrates Chicago's significant contribution to drawbridge innovation and the city's emergence as the drawbridge capital of the world. It is perfect for any reader interested in learning more about the history and function of Chicago's many and varied bridges. The introduction won The Henry N. Barkhausen Award for original research in the field of Great Lakes maritime history sponsored by the Association for Great Lakes Maritime History.
