Civil Engineering Calculations Reference Guide (McGraw-Hill Engineering Reference Guide Series)

In one handy volume- all the essential data and procedures to quickly and easily make the many common (and uncommon) calculations required in civil engineering for the design of wood, steel, and concrete structures. Covering the full range of applied civil engineering, this practical guide includes vital coalition procedures in dual units for: statistics, stress and strain, stresses in flexural members, deflection of beams, statically indeterminate structures, moving loads and influence lines, riveted and welded connections, steel beams and plate girders, steel columns and tension members, plastic design of steel structures, timber engineering, reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete, design of highway bridges, fluid mechanics, surveying and route design, aerial photogrammetry, and Soil mechanics. Compiled from Hick's Stand Handbook of Engineering Calculations. Second edition, this up-to-the-minute working tool gives civil engineers, building and structural designers, drafters, cost estimators, schedulers, mechanical engineers, machine designers, and architects step-by-step solutions to their on-the-job civil engineering problems.
