Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essentials of Civil Engineering Materials provides students with a foundational guide to the types of materials used in civil engineering, as well as how these materials behave under the conditions for which they were designed and a basic understanding of the science of the materials. This critical knowledge prepares students to carefully consider and confidently select the best materials for the design, construction, and maintenance of future projects. The text begins by introducing the basic requirements of engineering materials, material properties and standards, experimental design, economic factors, and the issue of sustainability. Additional chapters explore the mechanical principles of materials, composite models and viscoelasticity, and material chemistry. Students read about various types of materials, including metals, steel, aggregates and cementitious materials, and wood. The book concludes with a chapter dedicated to the topic of sustainability. Each chapter includes closing remarks to summarize the key concepts of the chapter and problems to help students retain important learnings. Essentials of Civil Engineering Materials is an ideal resource for introductory courses in civil engineering. Steven W. Cranford is the editor-in-chief of Matter, a journal for groundbreaking research and reviews in materials science. Kathryn E. Schulte Grahame is the interim associate director and an associate teaching professor in the First Year Engineering Program at Northeastern University. Matthew J. Eckelman is an associate professor and the associate chair for research in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at Northeastern University. Craig M. Shillaber is an assistant teaching professor in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at Northeastern University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil Engineering Materials explains why construction materials behave the way they do. It covers the construction materials content for undergraduate courses in civil engineering and related subjects and serves as a valuable reference for professionals working in the construction industry. The book concentrates on demonstrating methods to obtain, analyse and use information rather than focusing on presenting large amounts of data. Beginning with basic properties of materials, it moves on to more complex areas such as the theory of concrete durability and corrosion of steel. Discusses the broad scope of traditional, emerging, and non-structural materials Explains what material properties such as specific heat, thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity are and how they can be used to calculate the performance of construction materials. Contains numerous worked examples with detailed solutions that provide precise references to the relevant equations in the text. Includes a detailed section on how to write reports as well as a full section on how to use and interpret publications, giving students and early career professionals valuable practical guidance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For courses in Civil Engineering Materials, Construction Materials, and Construction Methods and Materials offered in Civil, Environmental, or Construction engineering departments. This introduction gives students a basic understanding of the material selection process and the behavior of materials - a fundamental requirement for all civil and construction engineers performing design, construction, and maintenance. The authors cover the various materials used by civil and construction engineers in one useful reference, limiting the vast amount of information available to the introductory level, concentrating on current practices, and extracting information that is relevant to the general education of civil and construction engineers. A large number of experiments, figures, sample problems, test methods, and homework problems gives students opportunity for practice and review.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil engineering is a branch of engineering that is concerned with the construction, design and maintenance of physical infrastructure such as bridges, roads, dams, airports, sewage systems, railways, etc. Many different types of building materials are used for the construction of buildings and structures. Some traditional materials are timber and blockwork. Concrete, cold rolled steel framing, composite materials, structural steel, plastics, veneer, etc. are also used in construction. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of civil engineering. It discusses the different materials that are used in construction in extensive detail. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and experts alike and contribute to the growth of the discipline.
