Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Masonry Dam Design: Including High Masonry DamsIn this revision the authors have attempted to amplify some of the features which, in the earlier edition, were little more than touched upon. Chapters on the Overfall and Arched types of masonry dams have been added, together with cross-sections of a selected series of masonry dams chronologically arranged. The last are for the purpose of comparison and showing the development of the masonry dam from the time of the massive Spanish type to the present.The design of low and medium-sized as well as that of high-masonry dams, may be prosecuted according to the theory and methods in this work, as general expressions have been written wherever possible. It was considered best to indicate this in the title while the original page captions remain the same.The authors are indebted to Miss Bessie N. MacDonald, A.B., for assistance in verifying the more difficult mathematical derivations for the Arched Dam. Acknowledgment is also made to Mr. Alfred D. Flinn, Member American Society of Civil Engineers, who had kindly furnished one of the authors with a set of cross-sections of dams, a number of which are shown in the series in Appendix III.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from High Masonry Dam Design IT is the practice at Columbia University to require of the third-year students in the Department of Civil Engineer ing, the execution of the design of a masonry dam, and to aid them in this problem they have heretofore been furnished with Notes on the Theory and Design of High Masonry Dams, prepared some years ago by Prof. Burr of the Department, and having for their basis the method as set forth by Mr. Edward Wegmann. This procedure with which Wegmann is credited, and which was developed through the investigations undertaken in connection with the Aqueduct Commission of the city of New York, for the purpose of determining a correct cross-section for the Quaker Bridge dam, resulted in the first direct method for calculating the cross-section of such structures and is essentially a development of the Rankine theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by civil engineers, dam safety officials, dam owners, geologists, hydraulic engineers, and risk analysts, this handbook is the first cooperative attempt to provide practical solutions to dam problems within the financial constraints faced by dam owners. It provides hands-on information for identifying and remedying common defects in concrete and masonry dams, embankment dams, reservoirs, and related structures. It also includes procedures for monitoring dams and collecting and analyzing data. Case histories demonstrate economical solutions to specific problems.

This book was released on 2016-06-09 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Discrete Element Method (DEM) has emerged as a solution to predicting load capacities of masonry structures. As one of many numerical methods and computational solutions being applied to evaluate masonry structures, further research on DEM tools and methodologies is essential for further advancement. Computational Modeling of Masonry Structures Using the Discrete Element Method explores the latest digital solutions for the analysis and modeling of brick, stone, concrete, granite, limestone, and glass block structures. Focusing on critical research on mathematical and computational methods for masonry analysis, this publication is a pivotal reference source for scholars, engineers, consultants, and graduate-level engineering students.
