Cover: Estimating in heavy construction: roads, bridges, tunnels, foundations

Estimating in heavy construction: roads, bridges, tunnels, foundations

Dieter Jacob · 2017
Description
This book is a valuable source of knowledge for everyone involved in estimating for heavy construction projects. It explains the strategies of heavy contractors and their implications for cost estimating. The core part presents the theoretical background of estimating along with best practice examples from large-scale international construction projects. Unlike other publications, it provides precise numerical examples and fully calculated costs.

Cover: Construction materials: geology, production and applications

Construction materials: geology, production and applications

Manuel B. Revuelta · 2021
Description
This textbook provides an overview of construction materials, beginning with fundamental concepts and international standards. It examines the components of concrete and mortars in depth and covers additional materials such as ceramics, metals, bituminous products, and geosynthetics. The final chapter discusses construction and demolition waste in the context of global material use.

Cover: The mechanics of constitutive modeling

The mechanics of constitutive modeling

Niels S. Ottosen; Matti Ristinmaa · 2005
Description
This work offers a comprehensive and parallel treatment of constitutive models and numerical solution strategies within solid mechanics. It explains concepts at a fundamental level while illustrating them with specific models. Each topic is self-contained and includes extensive references. The generality of approach makes the book valuable for postgraduates and researchers in mechanics, civil engineering, and materials engineering.
