Der Stahlbau-Kalender ist ein Wegweiser fur die richtige Berechnung und Konstruktion im gesamten Stahlbau, er dokumentiert und kommentiert verlasslich den aktuellen Stand der Stahlbau-Regelwerke. Zur bauaufsichtlichen Einfuhrung von Eurocode 3 werden seit der Ausgabe 2011 systematisch alle Teile der Norm mit ihren Nationalen Anhangen kommentiert. In diesem Jahr sind neben der Aktualisierung zum Teil 1-8 «Anschlusse» auch Praxisbeispiele fur die ...
Trenchless technology is increasingly used for the installation of underground pipes and cables. Progress in machinery and control technology has extended the scope of cost-effective and environmentally friendly pipe jacking technology. ...
Explores and brings together the existent body of knowledge on building performance analysis Building performance is an important yet surprisingly complex concept. This book presents a comprehensive and systematic overview of the subject. It provides a working definition of building performance, and an in-depth discussion of the role building performance plays throughout the building life cycle. The book also explores the perspectives of various ...
In steel construction, stability models are of central importance due to the risk of instability in slender structures under compression loading. The book covers calculations for these loadings and practical applications in residential and industrial building. ...
The book brings together the basics and rules for design, detailing, structural design and construction of structures for protection against wild torrents. It includes a functional and constructive classification of the most important types of structure and completed examples. ...
The Geotechnical Engineering Handbook is the reference book for ground engineering. The first part contains the geotechnical fundamentals, the properties, the substantial behaviour of rock and soil, the determination of characteristical values as well as their computational consideration in stability analysis. ...
PROFINET is the first integrated Industrial Ethernet Standard for automation, and utilizes the advantages of Ethernet and TCP/IP for open communication from the corporate management level to the process itself. PROFINET CBA divides distributed, complex applications into autonomous units of manageable size. Existing fieldbuses such as PROFIBUS and AS-Interface can be integrated using so-called proxies. This permits separate and cross-vendor devel ...
