Book Synopsis Multi-Storey Precast Concrete Framed Structures by : Kim S. Elliott
Download or read book Multi-Storey Precast Concrete Framed Structures written by Kim S. Elliott and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-10-07 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Precast reinforced and prestressed concrete frames provide a high strength, stable, durable and robust solution for any multi-storey structure, and are widely regarded as a high quality, economic and architecturally versatile technology for the construction of multi-storey buildings. The resulting buildings satisfy a wide range of commercial and industrial needs. Precast concrete buildings behave in a different way to those where the concrete is cast in-situ, with the components subject to different forces and movements. These factors are explored in detail in the second edition of Multi-Storey Precast Concrete Framed Structures, providing a detailed understanding of the procedures involved in precast structural design. This new edition has been fully updated to reflect recent developments, and includes many structural calculations based on EUROCODE standards. These are shown in parallel with similar calculations based on British Standards to ensure the designer is fully aware of the differences required in designing to EUROCODE standards. Civil and structural engineers as well as final year undergraduate and postgraduate students of civil and structural engineering will all find this book to be thorough overview of this important construction technology.

Book Synopsis Building Facades: A Guide To Common Defects In Tropical Climates by : Yit Lin Michael Chew
Download or read book Building Facades: A Guide To Common Defects In Tropical Climates written by Yit Lin Michael Chew and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998-02-20 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much attention has been given to the increasing number of defects on building facades in relation to the construction industry's growing use of large panel curtain walls. This book highlights the various types of defects commonly found on building facades under tropical conditions. The facade elements discussed include natural stone, glass, metal sheeting, plaster and tiling. The causes of defects, such as poor workmanship, inadequate design and maintenance, inappropriate use of materials and the action of environmental agents, are evaluated. The typical problems highlighted include cracking, water penetration, misalignment, sealant defects, discoloration, staining, efflorescence, corrosion and tile delamination. The causes of these defects and their implications for design, construction and maintenance are described. Illustrated with many photographs, this book will be a useful guide both to practising professionals and to undergraduate and graduate students.
