Looking back at the history of concrete houses around 1900, we can discover how reinforced concrete, initially tied to construction systems of renowned inventors (and other less known), is gradually becoming autonomous and a material on its own, highlighte ...
The Decision Aids for Tunneling are a very powerful tool in assisting decision makers. They have been developed and applied over decades. As popular as they have become in big tunneling projects, they remain complicated and less used for small tunnels. The ...
Over the last few decades, the application of glass in building construction has extended from small four-side supported windowpanes to areas traditionally reserved for other materials, such as roofs, floors, staircases and full building envelopes. Glass i ...
Over the past two decades China has become increasingly involved in Africa. From rising trade and investment capital to a rapid climb in industrial and construction activity, a new foundation has been laid for Africaâs development. While Africaâs econo ...
A number of construction engineering applications for textiles made of composite materials are presented in this chapter. All these structures were fabricated by connecting several subcomponents, usually by using adhesives. Although composite materials are ...
Hydropeaking is a major issue for storage hydropower plants. Hydropeaking can affect negatively the aquatic environment along river streams. For several hydropower plants studies which analyse measures to reduce the surge effect are currently under prepara ...
