| Summary, etc |
This textbook is intended for civil engineering, construction engineering, civil engineering technology, construction management engineering technology, and construction management programs. This textbook discusses the properties, characterization procedures and analysis techniques of primary civil engineering materials. Without gathering so much historical literature, this book focuses on the most recent required properties, characterization methods, design considerations and uses of common civil engineering materials. The required theories to understand the materials and to use it in engineering career are well discussed using a good number of mathematical worked-out examples. The author believes in simplicity in presentation and skips research ambiguities or research focus. In addition, the cutting-edge practice topics are included and obsolete topics are discarded in different chapters. The important laboratory tests are described step-by-step with high quality figures. Analysis equations and their applications have been discussed with appropriate examples and relevant practice problems. Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) styled questions are also included so that this book can be helpful for the FE examination as well and make students aware of the examination. The American Concrete Institute (ACI) Concrete Field Testing Technician - Grade I certification exam is also covered in the laboratory section. Students can be ACI certified Concrete Field-Testing Technician after completing this course which will boost up their career while in school |
