Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an integrated systems approach to the evaluation, analysis, design, and maintenance of civil engineering systems. Addressing recent concerns about the world's aging civil infrastructure and its environmental impact, the author makes the case for why any civil infrastructure should be seen as part of a larger whole. He walks readers through all phases of a civil project, from feasibility assessment to construction to operations, explaining how to evaluate tasks and challenges at each phase using a holistic approach. Unique coverage of ethics, legal issues, and management is also included.

Book excerpt: Designed for introductory courses, Introduction to Civil Engineering serves as both a textbook and a professional guide. It addresses all aspects of education and professional preparation for civil engineers, beginning with major technical areas and attributes and concluding with hiring opportunities. The first chapters of the text cover the scope of civil engineering, common core curriculum, and the skills and tools needed to succeed as a civil engineering student. Included is a clear description of the Fundamentals of Engineering exam taken by students in the senior year. The book then discusses landmarks and milestones in civil engineering, and the human stories behind them. It then turns to engineering ethics starting with student ethics, academic honesty, and appropriate classroom behavior. The final chapter details hiring opportunities in private companies and public agencies, advanced studies, and opportunities outside the field. The Principles and Practice of Engineering exam, the final step before licensing, is described in some detail. Written to inspire and empower students pursuing a B.S. in civil engineering, Introduction to Civil Engineering is an excellent textbook for an introductory civil engineering course.

Book excerpt: This Civil Engineering Book is one-of-a-kind. This book is structured to raise the level of expertise in Civil Engineering and to improve the competitiveness in the global markets. A civil engineer is someone who applies scientific knowledge to improve infrastructure and common utilities that meet basic human needs. Civil engineers plan, design and manage large construction projects. This could include bridges, buildings,dams, tunnels, buildings, airports, water and sewage systems, transport links and other major structures. They use computer modelling software and data from surveys, tests and maps to create project blueprints. These plans advise contractors on the best course of action and help minimise environmental impact and risk. Buildings and bridges are often the first structures to come to mind, because they are the most obvious engineering creations. But civil engineers are also responsible for less visible creations and contributions. Every time we open a water faucet, we expect water to come out, without thinking that civil engineers made it possible, in many cases by designing systems that transport water to cities from mountain sources that are sometimes hundreds of miles away. Civil engineering is one of the oldest and broadest engineering professions. It focuses on the infrastructure necessary to support a civilized society. The Roman aqueducts, the great European cathedrals, and the earliest metal bridges were built by highly skilled forerunners of the modern civil engineer. These craftsmen of old relied on their intuition, trade skills, and experience-based design rules, or heuristics, derived from years of trial and error experiments but rarely passed on to the next generation. This book of Civil Engineering covers Below Subjects ❏ FUNDAMENTALS ❏ BUILDING CONSTRUCTION ❏ CONCRETE TECHNOLOGY ❏ CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING ❏ ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING ❏ GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING ❏ GEOTHERMAL ENGINEERING ❏ HYDRAULICS ❏ PAVEMENT ❏ STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING ❏ TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING ❏ MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT ❏WATER RESOURCES ENGINEERING In contrast, today's civil engineers bring to bear on these problems a knowledge of the physical and natural sciences, mathematics, computational methods, economics, and project management. Civil engineers design and construct buildings, transportation systems (such as roads, tunnels, bridges, railroads, and airports), and facilities to manage and maintain the quality of water resources. Society relies on civil engineers to maintain and advance human health, safety, and our standard of living. Those projects that are vital to a community's survival are often publicly funded to ensure that they get done, even where there is no clear or immediate profit motive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find Practical Solutions to Civil Engineering Design and Cost Management Problems A guide to successfully designing, estimating, and scheduling a civil engineering project, Integrated Design and Cost Management for Civil Engineers shows how practicing professionals can design fit-for-use solutions within established time frames and reliable budgets. This text combines technical compliance with practical solutions in relation to cost planning, estimating, time, and cost control. It incorporates solutions that are technically sound as well as cost effective and time efficient. It focuses on the integration of design and construction based on solid engineering foundations contained within a code of ethics, and navigates engineers through the complete process of project design, pricing, and tendering. Well illustrated The book uses cases studies to illustrate principles and processes. Although they center on Australasia and Southeast Asia, the principles are internationally relevant. The material details procedures that emphasize the correct quantification and planning of works, resulting in reliable cost and time predictions. It also works toward minimizing the risk of losing business through cost blowouts or losing profits through underestimation. This Text Details the Quest for Practical Solutions That: Are cost effective Can be completed within a reasonable timeline Conform to relevant quality controls Are framed within appropriate contract documents Satisfy ethical professional procedures, and Address the client’s brief through a structured approach to integrated design and cost management Designed to help civil engineers develop and apply a multitude of skill bases, Integrated Design and Cost Management for Civil Engineers can aid them in maintaining relevancy in appropriate design justifications, guide work tasks, control costs, and structure project timelines. The book is an ideal link between a civil engineering course and practice.

Book excerpt: "Civil engineering is a profession that has a distinct focus on the design of infrastructure systems. There are major differences between the characteristics of the infrastructure design problems that civil engineers solve and the problems examined by other engineering disciplines, which tend to emphasize the design of smaller items produced for short term use. Beginning students in civil engineering should be made aware of these distinctions and the types of systems civil engineers design so that they can begin to think about the problems associated with them. This is the starting point for evolving into professional civil engineers whose area of expertise is design of the civil works infrastructure that supports modern societies."--
