Materials and Structures in Cold Regions
Author: Jia-Bao Yan
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0443219311
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Materials and Structures in Cold Regions: The Impact of Low Temperatures on Construction Materials and the Structural Behaviour of Structural Members is based on the latest research undertaken at Tianjin University, P.R. China and National University of Singapore. The book provides detailed experimental research on the influences of low temperatures on the mechanical properties of constructional materials and structural behavior of typical structural members at low temperatures, e.g., beams, columns, and walls. The theoretical and numerical models in the book on structural members at low temperatures simplifies and provides guidelines for structural engineers working on cold-region projects. The book blends the fundamental development of concepts with the practical specification of materials and structures at low temperatures. Provides detailed experimental research on the influence of low temperatures on the mechanical properties of constructional materials, and structural behavior of typical structural members at low temperatures, e.g., beams, columns, and walls Covers fundamental development of concepts, with the practical specification of materials and structures at low temperatures Presents the latest research, undertaken at Tianjin University, P.R.

Foundations of Structures in Cold Regions
Author: Frederick J. Sanger
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Building
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
The monograph describes the various kinds of foundations used for structures on permafrost with a brief discussion of foundations in areas of seasonal frost. Special attention is given to piled foundations in permafrost and the design of ventilation systems for controlling thaw under heated buildings. Appendixes outline techniques for computing the depth of freezing or of thawing, the design of refrigeration systems for artificial freezing, and the recommended procedure in the USSR for static pile tests. Included in the main text are 51 figures and 62 selected references. (Author).
