This book was released on 2003 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'aménagement du territoire joue un rôle important dans le renforcement des relations intersectorielles. Mais, la diversité de l'environnement, des valeurs culturelles, et des caractéristiques nationales et ethniques est un atout majeur en Europe qu'il convient de préserver et de mettre en valeur dans le contexte de la mondialisation. Il est tout aussi important de réduire les disparités entre pays, régions et communes d'Europe en matière de qualité de vie, de perspectives économiques, de prospérité et de niveau de développement. La question de l'accès aux services essentiels - accès à l'eau potable, assainissement des eaux usées, collecte et traitement des déchets, transport public, construction durable - dans ce contexte prend ici toute son importance. Ouvrage en anglais et en français.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains the papers presented at the 15th European Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ECSMGE), held in Athens, Greece. Considerable progress has been made in recent decades in understanding the engineering behavior of those hard soils and weak rocks that clearly fall into either the field of soil or of rock mechanics, and there have been important developments in design and construction methods to cope with them. Progress would be even more desirable, however, for those materials which fall into the 'grey' area between soils and rocks. They present particular challenges due to their diversity, the difficulties and problems arising in their identification and classification, their sampling and testing and in the establishment of suitable models to adequately describe their behavior. The publication aims to provide an updated overview of the existing worldwide knowledge of the geological features, engineering properties and behavior of such hard soils and weak rocks, with particular reference to the design and construction methods and problems associated with these materials. Part 4 was published post-conference and includes Conference Reports.

Download or read book Soft Soil Engineering written by Dave H. Chan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-09-28 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soft soils present particular challenges to engineers and an understanding of the specific characteristics of these soils is indispensable. Laboratory techniques such as numerical modelling, theoretical analysis and constitutive modelling give new insights into soft soil material behaviour, while large-scale testing in the field provides important information in areas such as slope stability and soft soil improvements. This collection of papers from the Fourth International Conference on Soft Soil Engineering, Vancouver, 2006, presents an international appraisal of current research and new advances in engineering practices, illustrating the theory with relevant case studies. Geotechnical professionals, engineers, academics and researchers working in the areas of soft ground engineering and soft soil engineering will find this a valuable book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce manuel pratique aide à comprendre les grands principes régissant la morphologie des cours d’eau et leur dynamique pour mieux concevoir des aménagements qui sauront résister aux crues sans déséquilibrer pour autant les écosystèmes. Le chapitre 1 donne les définitions, principes de base et résultats d’hydraulique à surface libre. Les chapitres 2 à 4 approfondissent le diagnostic des rivières en tenant compte du transport solide et de la constante interaction entre l’écoulement, le fond, les berges et le champ d’inondation. Les chapitres 5 à 9 exposent les différents aménagements et entretiens pour utiliser l’eau ou se protéger des crues. Cette 2e édition, entièrement réactualisée et augmentée de nombreux schémas et photos, aborde de nouveaux points : les calculs hydrauliques des déversoirs latéraux, des estimations de débit solide adaptées aux fortes pentes, la morphologie des torrents et les conséquences morphologiques des barrages, la restauration morphologique des rivières, les processus d’érosion par surverse, la conception des zones d’expansion de crues, des procédés de protection de berge ou de traitement des digues, la nouvelle norme sur les enrochements, etc... Diagnostic, aménagement et gestion des rivières s’adresse aux professionnels en charge de la gestion et de l’aménagement des cours d’eau ou de la police de l’eau : cabinets d’ingénierie, collectivités territoriales, établissements publics, sociétés d’aménagement régional et services déconcentrés et centraux de l’État. Il sera une aide précieuse pour les étudiants en écoles d’ingénieur ou en université et intéressera les chercheurs en mécanique des fluides, géomorphologie ou écologie fluviale.

Download or read book Applied Geotechnics for Construction Projects Volume 4 written by Ammar Dhouib and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-12-19 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geotechnical engineering is now a fundamental component of construction projects. The fourth and final volume of this book presents a range of retaining structures, alongside soil reinforcement and improvement techniques and processes. Applied Geotechnics for Construction Projects 4 first presents the concept of thrust-fall, then goes on to examine the behavior of retaining structures and their design and justification methods. A variety of practical applications for retaining structures are then considered, covering gravity walls, sheet pile curtains, in advance shoring excavations and retaining diaphragm walls. The book goes on to study soil reinforcement and improvement techniques, a subject that the author has dedicated thirty-five years to researching and teaching: from reinforced earth, in situ soil nailing, micropiles, in situ soil compaction, stone columns and rigid inclusions to "soil-cement" and "lime cement" columns. This book ends with a comprehensive and practical discussion of the behavior of underground structures; covering the concepts of convergence-confinement, stress evolution and subsidence estimation. Each chapter of this fourth volume is illustrated with concrete examples and measurements of retaining structures, soil reinforcement and soil improvement from construction sites. The result is a combination of geotechnical expertise and lessons learned from experience, both of which are highly valuable in the field of applied geotechnics for construction projects.
