Ground Anchorages and Anchored Structures


Book Description

This volume presents the proceedings of the first major international conference for over twenty years on the state-of-the-art of ground anchorage technology. Practical issues relating to construction and installation of anchorages are considered in a series of examples of engineering projects from around the world.




Geotechnical Engineering Handbook, Procedures


Book Description

Volume 2 of the Handbook covers the geotechnical procedures used in manufacturing anchors and piles as well as for improving or underpinning foundations, securing existing constructions, controlling ground water, excavating rocks and earth works. It also treats such specialist areas as the use of geotextiles and seeding.







Decoding Eurocode 7


Book Description

Decoding Eurocode 7 provides a detailed examination of Eurocode 7 Parts 1 and 2 and an overview of the associated European and International standards. The detail of the code is set out in summary tables and diagrams, with extensive. Fully annotated worked examples demonstrate how to apply it to real designs. Flow diagrams explain how reliability is introduced into design and mind maps gather related information into a coherent framework. Written by authors who specialise in lecturing on the subject, Decoding Eurocode 7 explains the key principles and application rules of Eurocode 7 in a logical and simple manner. Invaluable for practitioners, as well as for high-level students and researchers working in geotechnical fields.

Approval testing, Foundations, Construction systems parts, Rocks, Stress analysis, Structural design, Bolts, Anchorages, Design, Wall anchors, Corrosion protection, Corrosion, Maintenance, Structural systems, Tendons, Site investigations, Rock bolts, Soils, Grouting, Safety measures, Acceptance (approval), Construction systems, Structural members




Retaining Structures


Book Description

For practising civil and structural engineers in the field of general earth-retaining structure theory, this work presents the results of many case studies of actual retaining wall analysis, design, and construction. It also includes fundamental papers dealing with the effects of groundwater on passive earth pressure, and other related topics.
