Download or read book Highway Construction and Inspection Fieldbook written by Alberto Munguia Mireles and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014-11-03 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maintaining complete, comprehensive, detailing records of every process or deliverable items is fundamentally essential to the efficient control of the work, to the achievement of all Company and Project objectives and to the management of the potential risks and opportunities that could be encountered during the prosecution of the work. Any company is taking a great risk if the Inspector, Supervisor or Leadsmen is unable to recognize that one of the greatest problems about the daily field report is that the information in them will not be needed if there is not a problem. However, when and if a problem arises the information logged on the Daily Field Report will be of great importance when dealing with the problem. This field book is a tested methodology that if used well and daily will provide consistent information to the user, but also to upper management. This field book aggregates procedures used by roadwork experts and it has been designed considering the fact that personnel on site is not always well versed on writing documents. This is a step by step collection of information that will document the minimum data required to create a useful construction daily report.

Desirable attributes in the surveyor are discussed – qualifications, necessary insurance cover, both in respect of liability for his work and his own person, together with his fees. Court cases determining the scope and level of inspection are given full consideration and there is a concentration on ascertaining, particularly in regard to age, the materials and forms of construction that make up each part of a dwelling, the structure, finishes, services and surroundings and its condition, all by means of sight, sound, feel and smell.
Download or read book Ageing and Life Extension of Offshore Structures written by Gerhard Ersdal and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive overview of managing and assessing safety and functionality of ageing offshore structures and pipelines A significant proportion, estimated at over 50%, of the worldwide infrastructure of offshore structures and pipelines is in a life extension phase and is vulnerable to ageing processes. This book captures the central elements of the management of ageing offshore structures and pipelines in the life extension phase. The book gives an overview of: the relevant ageing processes and hazards; how ageing processes are managed through the life cycle, including an overview of structural integrity management; how an engineer should go about assessing a structure that is to be operated beyond its original design life, and how ageing can be mitigated for safe and effective continued operation. Key Features: Provides an understanding of ageing processes and how these can be mitigated. Applies engineering methods to ensure that existing structures can be operated longer rather than decommissioned unduly prematurely. Helps engineers performing these tasks in both evaluating the existing structures and maintaining ageing structures in a safe manner. The book gives an updated summary of current practice and research on the topic of the management of ageing structures and pipelines in the life extension phase but also meets the needs of structural engineering students and practicing offshore and structural engineers in oil & gas and engineering companies. In addition, it should be of value to regulators of the offshore industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive practical manual for professionals and self-builders, this innovative book explains the many benefits of building with hempcrete. Hempcrete is a building material with excellent, environmentally friendly properties. It's made from lime and hemp shivs (a waste product from hemp fibre growing) and can be used for walks, floor and roof insulation. Hempcrete is breathable, absorbing and emitting moisture; this helps regulate internal humidity, avoiding trapped moisture and mould growth, and creating healthier buildings. It provides excellent acoustic and thermal insulation, and it is lightweight, which reduces construction costs. Whether you're working on a new build or are planning a renovation, The Hempcrete Book tells you everything you need to know to get started with hempcrete. It describes how to source and mix it, and provides a detailed account of construction techniques, highlighting potential pitfalls and how to avoid them. With fully illustrated design notes and examples of completed builds, this book is a powerful tool for any eco-builder.

Download or read book Internal Swelling Reactions in Concrete written by Leandro F. M. Sanchez and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-02-19 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As critical concrete infrastructure deteriorates, engineers need efficient and reliable techniques to appraise the causes and the extent of deterioration, to evaluate the structural consequences and to select effective management protocols and rehabilitation strategies. This book looks at deterioration caused by internal swelling reaction (ISR) mechanisms in concrete, such as alkali-aggregate reaction, delayed ettringite formation and freeze-thaw cycles. The book provides accessible and comprehensive coverage of recent work and developments on the most common ISR mechanisms leading to induced expansion and deterioration. It addresses the implications of ISR on different scales (micro, meso and macro), outlines qualitative and quantitative techniques to assess the condition of affected concrete and introduces the multi-level assessment protocol, using advanced microscopic and mechanical techniques, particularly the stiffness damage test and damage rating index, as a reliable approach to appraise ISR-affected infrastructure. Also included is a detailed case study of the Robert-Bourassa Charest Overpass in Quebec. Internal Swelling Reactions in Concrete: Mechanisms and Condition Assessment is primarily intended for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as academics interested in the field of concrete durability and condition assessment of concrete. It will also be of interest to engineers and infrastructure owners dealing with ISR-related problems.
