This book was released on 2010-08-12 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to organize the Sixth International RILEM Symposium on SCC and the Fourth North-American Conference on the Design and Use of SCC, held on Sept 26-29, 2010 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The RILEM series of symposia started in 1999 in Stockholm, followed by Tokyo in 2001, Reykjavik in 2003, Chicago in 2005, and Ghent in 2007 with a steadily increasing number of papers, participants, and interest from across the globe. Due to the growing success of SCC, regional conferences have been organized, such as the North-American Conference on the Design and Use of SCC held in Chicago in 2002, 2005, and 2008; the International Symposium on Design, Performance and Use of SCC held nd in Changsa, China in 2005 and in Beijing, China in 2009; as well as the 2 International Conference on Advances in Concrete Technology in the Middle East: SCC held in Abu Dhabi in 2009. It can be concluded that these regional Conferences and Symposia were highly successful and reached a far more international audience than anticipated. Nearly 100 papers were submitted for these proceedings from which the International Scientific Committee selected 37 contributions covering a wide range of timely and original subjects from around the world. We would like to acknowledge the input of the International Scientific Committee for providing critical input to guarantee high quality of these peer-reviewed proceedings. We invite you to explore a wealth of information in the electronic proceedings.

Book excerpt: Improving Your Strength To Achieve Your Goals! Some of the times a lack of self-assurance stems merely from a deficiency of experience. You might not feel so positive about taking the SAT test or giving a public speech if you've never done it earlier. These feelings will shift as you grow and experience more matters in your life. Occasionally, however, a lack of self-onfidence may stem from tones of insecurity. Occasionally we have foul feelings about ourselves and we bury them deep within. Once we do this, we tend not to assert ourselves and take a chance because we fear our 'mysteries' will be revealed. If your lack of self-confidence comes from foul feelings you harbor about yourself, you're also experiencing something absolutely normal and common. But it's a normal feeling that you are able to and ought to change! Below is few of the information that you are about to learn: Chapter 1: Figure Out The Reason Chapter 2: Face What Scares You Chapter 3: Observe Your Strengths Chapter 4: Alter Your Behavior Chapter 5: Be The Third Person
Download or read book Performance Based Specifications and Control of Concrete Durability written by Hans Beushausen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-24 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work gives an overview of significant research from recent years concerning performance-based design and quality control for concrete durability and its implementation. In engineering practice, performance approaches are often still used in combination with prescriptive requirements. This is largely because, for most durability test methods, sufficient practical experience still has to be gained before engineers and owners are prepared to fully rely on them. This book, compiled by RILEM TC 230-PSC, is intended to assist efforts to successfully build the foundation for the full implementation of performance-based approaches through the exchange of relevant knowledge and experience between researchers and practitioners worldwide.

Download or read book Alternative Cementitious Materials for Self Compacting Concrete written by Yogesh Aggarwal and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-05-30 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the current emphasis on sustainable construction there is now a move towards using non-hazardous waste materials and by-products, as binders in making self-compacting concrete. Alternative Cementitious Materials for Self-Compacting Concrete provides a detailed review on the various properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) and how they are affected by the use, of by-products and waste materials in concrete production. The book provides a fair comparison on the application and use of various types of materials in SCC. It also provides the latest data and detailed information on modeling and soft computing techniques for estimation of the various properties of SCC as well as detailed investigations on microstructural characterization. The book will be a valuable reference resource for materials scientists, and civil and structural engineers working in construction materials and self-compacting concrete, as well as for those working in the cement production and non-hazard waste industries. - Includes detailed information on modeling and computational techniques for estimating SCC properties - Provides comprehensive information on the use of waste materials and by-products in self-compacting concrete - Covers comprehensive information on the different properties of SCC
Download or read book Mechanical Properties of Self Compacting Concrete written by Kamal H. Khayat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The State-of-the-Art Report of RILEM Technical Committee 228-MPS on Mechanical properties of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) summarizes an extensive body of information related to mechanical properties and mechanical behaviour of SCC. Due attention is given to the fact that the composition of SCC varies significantly. A wide range of mechanical properties are considered, including compressive strength, stress-strain relationship, tensile and flexural strengths, modulus of elasticity, shear strength, effect of elevated temperature, such as fire spalling and residual properties after fire, in-situ properties, creep, shrinkage, bond properties and structural behaviour. A chapter on fibre-reinforced SCC is included, as well as a chapter on specialty SCC, such as light-weight SCC, heavy-weight SCC, preplaced aggregate SCC, special fibre reinforced SCC and underwater concrete.

Download or read book The Confidence Code written by Katty Kay and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the success of Lean In and Why Women Should Rule the World, the authors of the bestselling Womenomics provide an informative and practical guide to understanding the importance of confidence—and learning how to achieve it—for women of all ages and at all stages of their career. Working women today are better educated and more well qualified than ever before. Yet men still predominate in the corporate world. In The Confidence Code, Claire Shipman and Katty Kay argue that the key reason is confidence. Combining cutting-edge research in genetics, gender, behavior, and cognition—with examples from their own lives and those of other successful women in politics, media, and business—Kay and Shipman go beyond admonishing women to "lean in."Instead, they offer the inspiration and practical advice women need to close the gap and achieve the careers they want and deserve.
