Engineering Considerations for Lift-Slab Construction - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The 1987 collapse of L'Ambiance Plaza in Bridgeport, Connecticut, demonstrated the need to re-evaluate the engineering of lift-slab construction. In this re-evaluation, Zallen and Peraza, both affiliated with the Task Committee on Lift-Slab Construction of the American Society of Civil Engineers' Technical Council on Forensic Engineering, examine theories on the cause of the 1987 collapse, address engineering requirements for lift-slab construction, and present recommendations on lifting equipment, construction loads, and planning for lift-slab projects. The book will be of interest to engineers, architects, and lift-slab contractors. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
