Download or read book Reliability Based Design in Geotechnical Engineering written by Kok-Kwang Phoon and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2008-04-25 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reliability-based design is the only engineering methodology currently available which can ensure self-consistency in both physical and probabilistic terms. It is also uniquely compatible with the theoretical basis underlying other disciplines such as structural design. It is especially relevant as geotechnical design becomes subject to increasing codification and to code harmonization across national boundaries and material types. Already some codes of practice describe the principles and requirements for safety, serviceability, and durability of structures in reliability terms. This book presents practical computational methods in concrete steps that can be followed by practitioners and students. It also provides geotechnical examples illustrating reliability analysis and design. It aims to encourage geotechnical engineers to apply reliability-based design in a realistic context that recognises the complex variabilities in geomaterials and model uncertainties arising from a profession steeped in empiricism. By focusing on learning through computations and examples, this book serves as a valuable reference for engineers and a resource for students.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A series of reports by Klohn Crippen Consultants Ltd. and Canadian Seabed Research Ltd. for the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs, Canada, have documented the available resources of good quality granular material located in the Canadian Beaufort Sea that could potentially be used in future developments [of artificial islands or subsea berms for caisson retained islands and drilling barges]. The information contained in these reports has been converted into database format for review and presentation on a PC."--Executive summary.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of four abandoned artificial islands (used during oil exploration) in the Canadian section of the Beaufort Sea, documents their current topography, probable rates of erosion, presence of underwater debris and possible hazards to shipping. Islands studied are Arnak L-30, Issungnak 0-61, Itiyok I-27 and Kaubvik I-43.

Download or read book Handbook of Dredging Engineering written by John B. Herbich and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2000 with total page 1522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authoritative, up-to-date guide to dredging theory and practice. From selecting the right equipment, to evaluating environmental impact, to bidding on a project, Handbook of Dredging Engineering, Second Edition, is the last word on modern hydraulic dredging. Edited by John B. Herbich, with contributions by well-know experts in the field, the Handbook examines basic fluid mechanics; dredge pumps; dredging equipment; sediment; pipeline transport of solids; dredging methods; disposal and placement of dredged material; numerical models for predicting the fate of dredged material placed in open water; environmental effects of dredging activities; instrumentation and automation; and project planning. This vital new edition covers major advances made over the last seven years. Three chapters are new to this edition: numerical models for predicting the fate of dredged material...subaqueous capping of contaminated sediment...and removal of contaminated sediments by dredging, with illustrative case studies.

This book was released on 1989 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The geotechnical engineer needs to be aware of the advantages and problems of different tests for sites with different geological conditions. Interpreting the results of penetration tests is an essentially empirical activity and as such the engineer is required to understand standard equipment and procedures. This book provides crucial information about all these considerations and is a valuable textbook of current theory and practice.
